Abstract:

In partnership with the San Francisco District Attorney, Terence Hallinan, and his staff, the National Economic Development and Law Center undertook this research project in the spring of 2002 in order to help guide the development of industry-specific workforce development programs that can provide good wages and/or career advancement opportunities for criminal offenders. While this research examines the experiences of ex-felons, the research, related issues, and proposed strategies discussed herein are relevant to work with other criminal offenders.
