Sponsorships

With unemployment rates at historic lows, employers are struggling to find qualified candidates to fill vacancies. From construction and manufacturing to hospitality and professional services, organizations who are planning to hire in the coming months will find a dwindling pool of capable candidates.

In an effort to create safer communities by reducing re-offenses, and to offer former inmates a second chance, Governor Ducey tasked Arizona agencies to provide prerelease workforce services to prepare inmates for success and self-sufficiency. A variety of programs, including on-site prison Second Chance Centers, have been created to prepare inmates for Arizona´s workforce through comprehensive employment readiness services.

Arizona employers are invited to participate in the 2024 Reentry Employer Forum to learn the benefits and opportunities available through Arizona´s largest untapped workforce solutions - Returning Citizens. Be a part of this unique event that is strengthening our state´s workforce and changing lives.

More than 250 employers are expected to learn how your state government is working to solve staffing shortages while reducing the rate that offenders return to prison. Turning offenders (who cost tax payers more than $ 24,000 a year) into tax payers also frees up valuable state resources for other important services (like our schools and infrastructure upgrades).
