Our donors are people who follow the Biblical mandate of Hebrews 13:3, that says “Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them."
2nd Chance Indiana can provide job preparation training along with mentoring prior to release and connections to employers willing to offer a second chance with continued mentoring after release, but if the reentrant can't afford reliable transportation to get to work, he will lose his job. FACT: 89% of those rearrested within 3 years of release are unemployed at the time of arrest. Zippia
We cannot let this happen for the sake of the reentrant, the spouse, and especially for their children for whom a working parent not only supplies a foundation of economic stability, but also provides a map for them to follow that they might understand how the dignity of work is better than living on government subsidies, that are never enough. FACT: Children of an incarcerated parent are 5 times more likely to become incarcerated themselves. Rutgers
