Providing Solutions for Success

An End to Recidivism

The number one predictor of recidivism is joblessness, and people with a criminal record experience unemployment rates up to 5x the national average. Formerly incarcerated people want to work, but often face structural barriers to employment. Televerde Foundation’s workforce development program prepares women with in-demand skills that will enable them to successfully join and advance in the global workforce. Our custom-designed PATHS programs focus on personal growth, job skills, workplace readiness, financial literacy, lifelong learning and mentoring.

A Solution for Employers

The Great Resignation, unemployment rates of less than 4 percent, and almost 11 million open jobs in the United States are issues that are taking a toll on a company’s ability to attract and retain talent. In fact, the shortage of talent in the United States has tripled over the last 10 years. As a result, 69% of employers are having difficulty filling certain roles, particularly in sales, customer service and IT related positions. To solve this problem, companies must start thinking about and investing in untapped talent pools to fill these in-demand positions.

We use best practices and certified, accredited curricula to ensure all program participants receive relevant, useful, and reputable training and education.

Successes

”I can’t imagine being released from prison without the skills, support and guidance I got from my Televerde Foundation family. My experience in the Career PATHS program truly changed my Iife and I use the skills I learned in the program every single day.”

“Televerde Foundation’s PATHS program was much more than a ‘release’ class. PATHS created a strong network of people that I can reach out to no matter the need or challenge and without question.”
