From Prison to Possibility: How Higher Ed Can Open Doors
Building a career after incarceration can be an uphill battle. So how can we help people access education while inside--and get a jumpstart on future success? Last year, three formerly incarcerated individuals who'd accessed higher education while in prison set out to interview inspiring people who've built meaningful careers after release. In this panel, these three individuals will share insights from their conversations, as well as what they've learned from their own higher ed experiences--and examine how shifting the narrative around reentry could help others pursue more promising futures.
