We are a unified coalition of professionals whose goal is to help all ex-incarcerated individuals find employment once released. We use all our resources in order to be able to extend our reach on a global level and always welcome new and passionate professionals to our ranks. Recidivism is an epidemic that not only affects peoples lives, but it affects the economy via unemployment. We are not here to preach about what is or is not wrong with our Legal System, we are here to provide a solution to aid our Legal System. Just or Unjust, the system will not change if we don’t provide a method of change. Our 2nd Chance Division does just that…we provide a method of change.
We have taken our program into a new dimension and are proactive in our approach to diminishing recidivism. How? We are actively involving ourselves by entering the confines of the prison system armed with positive speakers, job coaches, consultants, activists, writers, and True SUCCESS stories in order to provide the change necessary in their lives from within. All current incarcerated individuals are provided with a certificate of completion of the program they were involved in, while this may be a small achievement to some, it is a life altering achievement for others. Once released, they are all welcomed with open arms and provided with aid in workforce reentry.
How We Got Started
The fact remains that recently released, ex-incarcerated individuals need employment once released in order to provide for themselves, their families, and the economy but are finding it difficult to do so. At RIFT SUCCESS we provide work and career opportunities for those that wish to return to the workforce thus enhancing their quality of life and lowering their risk of returning to crime as a means of survival.
