I had the privilege of attending a Culpeper ReEntry Committee meeting at lunch today. Our community continues to amaze me. The devoted professionals who attended today’s meeting are a group of men and women who have a sincere interest in helping those who have been incarcerated to re-enter society productively. Their dedication and personal sacrifice to help others is remarkable and commendable.
My invitation was to add the view from a business perspective regarding how the programs and incentives might be seen by the business community. Far from an expert in this area, I can only say that awareness is the best tool. If businesses have a need for trained employees and through awareness of the programs they find those employees – the community wins….
If you are interested in the programs and incentives available to businesses in the Culpeper area for those reentering from prison - there are many excellent resources here in Culpeper.
