Applying for a job, checking email, or finding community resources often starts online. For someone returning home after incarceration, navigating technology can be another challenge in an already demanding transition.
Solano Empower Tech, a Match2Hire initiative, supports digital literacy and job readiness for people in the reentry community. The goal is simple: help participants become more confident using technology as they work toward their next opportunity.
Why digital confidence matters
Knowing how to use digital tools can make everyday tasks feel more manageable. A job seeker may need to find an opening online, access an application, or respond to an employer’s message. Building confidence can make it easier to take those steps and ask for help when something is unfamiliar.
Learning takes practice. Having space to ask questions and develop skills is an important part of that process.
Connecting skills with personal goals
Technology is most useful when it helps someone accomplish something meaningful. That might mean preparing for employment, accessing information, or staying connected with support.
Solano Empower Tech connects digital literacy with job readiness, helping participants build skills they can carry into their next chapter.
Taking the first step
You do not need to have every answer before reaching out. Asking about available training is a place to begin.
