The goal of offering basic education, GED, postsecondary, and vocational training to exonerees is to ensure that our participants are getting every possible opportunity to succeed and become productive members of society. Along with traditional educational programs we will also offer life skills programs, which we feel further expands the knowledge and understanding to achieve successful reentry. The goal of our educational and life skills model is to ensure that exonerees can gain the knowledge and skills needed to obtain long-term, living-wage employment. These formal and non-formal classes will be offered to our participants based on their needs and desires as well as their background and future goals.
