On Thursday, April 6th at 9:00am, New Jersey Reentry Corporation will host its annual reentry conference at St. Peter’s University in Jersey City.

The Conference, titled “Training for the Dignity of Work” focuses on connecting people to training and then to work.

The registration page is available here.

The Conference will feature the stories of several NJRC participants who have developed careers because of quality job training. It will also feature a variety of seminars with business leaders, government officials, and the formerly incarcerated, which will underscore the importance of providing the reentry population with training opportunities that lead to a pathway to employment.

This is a premier opportunity for employees and employers to learn more about hiring formerly incarcerated individuals, as well as ways we can better support persons in the workplace. There will also be networking opportunities available so that individuals in attendance can build relationships with potential employers or mentors who can help guide them through their transition back into life outside of prison walls.
