DEFENDANT/OFFENDER WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT

Explosive growth in the number of people on probation or parole has propelled the population of the American corrections system to more than 7.3 million. The Department of Justice reports that one of every 15 people in this country will serve a prison term during their lifetime and one in 31 individuals is currently in prison, on probation or parole. Of those released, 67.5% will be rearrested within three years. Having a meaningful job with a livable wage and reducing the barriers to employment has proven to reduce the likelihood of re-offending. By networking with others throughout the nation, all attendees have the opportunity to learn better practices and implement them in their home communities.
