Happy September! Fall is quickly approaching and ReConnect, Inc. is working hard to bring new opportunities and Job Club employers to our clients. Kicking off the month of September is an Open House Celebration specifically for ReConnect, Inc. celebrating our wonderful and successful adult reentry program ReConnect2Success.
Since January 2017, ReConnect, Inc. has helped over 623 men and women overcome barriers to reentry success, lower recidivism, and become productive citizens while focusing on public safety. Many of our clients have been served through the life skills and self development classes Executive Director LaVon Stennis-Williams teaches at each of the men prisons in the state of Nebraska. The primary goal of these classes is to help participants to not only engage in self-development, but also through their transformation to help transform the prison culture with an " each one teach one" approach.
At ReConnect, Inc. we understand breaking down barriers to reentry success is a national problem, but the solutions are mainly local. We also know reentry needs differ from person to person which is why all our efforts including services we provide to our clients are tailored to address the actual needs as defined and not trends, data, or what's popular.
ReConnect, Inc. is truly dedicated to empowering, transforming, and inspiring each of our clients and the community.
If interested in any event listed on the flyer, please call (402) 934-4933 or email ShakurA@reconnectsuccess.com to register.
