Second Chance Employer Information Session

900 Plantation Road,Blacksburg VA 24060

27 July, 2022

Description

Virginia recently revised its policies for incarcerated individuals regarding time served/good behavior, and made the policy retroactive. This means that we will see a large influx of previously incarcerated folks returning home to SWVA. This has the potential to have a great impact on businesses in the region, especially those that are struggling with the dwindling labor force numbers. Join us on July 27 at the Hilton Garden Inn Blacksburg University to learn about the benefits of a Second Chance Employment Program. Listen to resource providers explain incentive programs. Hear from local businesses about their first-hand experiences. A FULL breakfast will be provided!
