What type of vocational classes does the reentry facility offer? How can potential employers help?
Local employers will be invited to identify vocational training to develop the skills and abilities needed for the offenders to work in jobs provided by employers in the immediate area. CDCR will be in regular contact with resources statewide to identify, register, and facilitate the deployment of all services that would benefit and support local employers interested in the potential labor force being developed in rehabilitative reentry facilities. Providers can begin training parolees while they are incarcerated in the reentry facilities. Additionally, local employers may be able to lease and utilize space where appropriate in secure reentry program facilities. It may be possible for employers to employ inmates to work inside the facility, subject to safety, security and rehabilitative expectations.
