As National Second Chance Month comes to an end, remember to keep in mind that everybody deserves a second chance, especially individuals who are re-entering the workforce and coming back to make a difference in our communities. From webinars and funding opportunities to information on a variety of topics such as family engagement, housing, and mental health, the National Reentry Resource Center has a wealth of resources on how workforce and education partners can assist people returning to their communities.
