Many formerly incarcerated individuals face barriers to reentering the workforce. Some employers hesitate to hire the formerly incarcerated, which drastically reduces employment possibilities and earnings potential. Entrepreneurship can help to overcome these barriers to employment and reduce recidivism. The hearing will discuss entrepreneurship training options for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals.
