Our Just Future’s Post

This happens to be one of the most needed, little known hiring programs around…. With more than 25% of our school aged children in this country having some form of diagnosis that falls into the category of #neurodivergence - these are the kinds of programs that can be a game changer for how we think about recruiting, hiring and retaining top talent in an inclusive way. Kudos to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency for leading the way on this across the Intrlligence Community and I’m excited to see other agencies across the #federalgovernment accurate adoption of the same. Some great organizations like the Census Bureau have also created #neurodiversity #affinitygroups and #employeeresourcegroups to support their #workforce and encourage allyship #neurodiversityatwork #neurodiversity #inclusiveworkplace #inclusiveculture #employeeexperience #futureofwork #inclusivehiring #federalworkforce #workforcetransformation

🚨 We need dedicated employer partners! 🚨 Our goal is to place 1,234 individuals into meaningful jobs by September 2025, and we need your help to make it happen. These talented individuals, many of whom have faced barriers like justice system involvement or reliance on programs such as TANF and SNAP, have completed training in one of seven specialized technology pathways and are eager to bring their skills to your team. The financial impact is significant: - With an average starting salary of $45k-$55k, these placements could generate $55M to $68M annually in earned wages for the state of Tennessee. - Reducing dependence on TANF, SNAP, and similar benefits leads to millions in savings for families and taxpayers. - Empowering individuals impacted by the justice system lowers recidivism rates, stabilizes communities, and strengthens families.

When someone who is currently unemployed reaches out to connect on LinkedIn, please accept their request. Let's not judge anyone based on their job title or employment status. We should always treat others with the same kindness and respect we'd hope to receive. Unemployment is often just a temporary phase, a small chapter in a much larger story. Life is unpredictable; the person you might overlook today could become a crucial connection or even a source of support tomorrow. By extending a hand now, you might be making a significant difference in someone’s life. Let's come together to support and uplift one another. Let’s foster a community where everyone feels valued, respected, and encouraged. After all, we’re all in this together, navigating the twists and turns of our careers and lives. #SupportEachOther #LinkedInConnections #EmpathyInAction #CareerGrowth #Networking #BeKind #CommunitySupport #UnemploymentAwareness

Did you know that Second Chance Hiring can transform lives? It's all about giving those coming out of prison a job and an opportunity to start rebuilding their lives. But how does it actually work? Let me break it down for you! ⬇️ First things first, as a company interested in Second Chance Hiring, it's crucial to connect with the available resources in your area. And I'm not just talking about one or two resources – we're talking health, food, transportation, and housing resources across the board! So why is this important? Well, when you hire someone who's just left prison and may not have stable housing or access to basic necessities yet, providing these resources through your company can make all the difference. • For example, if you're looking to employ someone without housing options but has great potential as a worker and employee ready to seize opportunities, consider connecting with realtors or even acquiring properties yourself to accommodate them. This way, they have a safe place to live while starting their new journey at your workplace. ⚫ Remember: Second Chance Hiring isn't just about offering employment; it's about creating an environment where individuals can thrive holistically by addressing their immediate needs too. → By actively seeking out partnerships with local organizations that provide support services such as healthcare clinics or food banks (just to name a few), your company becomes a catalyst for positive change within your community! ◆ So let's recap: Second Chance Hiring involves giving individuals leaving prison an opportunity by providing employment AND connecting them with essential resources like health services ⚕️ , food assistance , transportation aid , and secure housing . When businesses embrace this approach together with compassion and determination for social impact... magic happens! Let's continue the conversation!
