A fresh start takes more than determination. For people returning home after incarceration, it can mean finding work, securing housing, reconnecting with care, and learning how to navigate unfamiliar systems—all at once.

At Match2Hire, we believe people deserve practical support as they take those steps. Our justice-involved programs connect participants with opportunities to build skills, explore employment, and prepare for greater stability.

Making connections with employers

Our second chance job fairs bring job seekers together with employers open to second-chance hiring. These events create space for conversations about experience, abilities, and career goals.

For participants, meeting an employer can be an opportunity to share more than an application reveals. For employers, it is a chance to meet candidates whose strengths might otherwise be overlooked.

Understanding record-clearing options

A criminal record can raise questions during a job or housing search. Match2Hire’s expungement workshops help participants learn about record-clearing options and potential next steps. Individual circumstances vary, so understanding which questions to ask is an important starting point.

Supporting the person behind the application

Employment is one part of a successful transition. Access to training, care coordination, and housing support can help people continue moving toward their goals.

Match2Hire brings these services together with a focus on the individual and the next step that matters to them.
