Did you know that 33% of working-age Americans have some form of a criminal record? This startling statistic was the genesis for the Kelly 33 Second Chances Program. In a new op-ed in Crain's Cleveland Business, Marvin Figaro, Director of DEI Strategic Partnerships at Kelly, talks about this groundbreaking hiring program. As we wind down on #SecondChanceMonth, Figaro urges Ohio businesses to dismantle outdated hiring policies that exclude valuable candidates with criminal records and build new ones that welcome these job-seekers who have been overlooked and undervalued.

Although rewarding, being a police officer is a high-stress and risky career. Understanding why police officers choose this career, why they stay, and why they leave may help improve recruitment and retention and advance the well-being of agencies, communities, officers, and their families. That's why NPI, in collaboration with George Mason University's (GMU) Center for Evidence-Based Crime Policy and the Fairfax County Police Department in Virginia, is conducting a multi-year-long study analyzing variations in officers' career paths, factors in decision-making, and significant "turning points."

12 out of 500. That's how many middle-aged, normal policemen stepped forward when given the opportunity to not participate in a mission to eliminate 1,800 citizens. A staggering 488 committed themselves to fulfill the order. Years later, around 150 of these policemen were interviewed by social scientists. When some of the 488 were asked why they continued with the mission, two primary themes emerged: fear of being considered a coward by their peers fear of negative impacts on their careers. In a similar situation, what would you do? What do you hope you would do? What does your personal history indicate you would do? These are difficult questions, but ones that are worth asking ourselves.

Ladies and Gentlemen: As Patrick Bet-David says "Bad policies has consequences". That is on full display in NY. I grew up in CNY about 20 minutes from Ilion & the Remington Arms headquarters location. The town was very low income as it was and this will likely be the death-blow to the local economy. However, I won't make this post a pontification about NY, my hometown, and the policies that destroyed it. CNY will always be "home", but I can never return to being a resident. As someone with goals, ambitions, and ideology that doesn't match the local populous - you feel unwelcome/isolated. (although this can be enjoyable.) The oppressive tax structure on 1099/Business owners is downright criminal, the conservative area that is CNY doesn't stand a chance to the macro-political picture in NY, and there's no end in sight. Unfortunately, everyone saw this story coming. I left NY almost 10 years ago and now reside in Florida - long before the boom and publicity that came with 2020 and beyond. My point in writing this is the following: NY is an amazing state rich in culture and history and its being destroyed before our eyes. However, this almost feels necessary so that someone can rise to the top to fix it. I have no desire to run for any Political Office, yet it almost feels like a duty at this point. Until then, I'll enjoy the palm trees throughout the winter! #uticaNY #ilionNY #remingtonarms #2a #2ndamendment #NY #NYC #politics

Sometimes issues seem so complex, but are really just about basic humanity and dignity. Providing people with a second chance is one of those issues. For the last five years JPMorgan Chase & Co. has supported efforts that help remove barriers to employment and opportunity for the millions of Americans who have a criminal record. The repercussions for those who have fulfilled their obligations to the justice system and get caught in never-ending barriers to reentering society are devastating. The toll on economic growth alone costs the U.S. over $80 billion annually, but it’s about so much more than that. The complicated paperwork and high costs required to expunge these records is preventing far too many American’s from accessing some the most basic needs: jobs, housing, education and other resources needed to take care of themselves and their families. This Second Chance Month, we’re raising awareness around the 38 states that have yet to enact Clean Slate legislation, a critical step needed to remove these barriers and create greater economic opportunity for more people. Please take two minutes and watch this video and join this effort. We need to fix this.
