Employment Services
Research and common sense tell us that if an individual with a criminal record is going to remain "crime free" he or she needs the self-sufficiency and stability provided by regular employment.
Safer Foundation's employment Services help clients become ready for work.
Safer has a range of programs and services to help formerly incarcerated individuals find employment.
Each year, Safer Foundation helps thousands of people with criminal records choose a new direction of responsibility, education, and productivity. Without intervention, 52 percent return to prison. By contrast, fewer than 22 percent of those receiving Safer's services go back.
