If you have ever been arrested or incarcerated, you know that gaining employment after your release is very hard. The American prison system does not allow much access to opportunities for ex offenders. This post is to provide you with a few resources to aid in getting back into the workforce upon your release.
1) Federal Bonding Program – established in 1996 to give employers the reassurance of positive employment. It allows the employer to purchase an insurance bond that is valid for the first 6 months of employment. It will reimburse the employer for any loss of property etc that they incur by your employment. For more information or to obtain the contact information for your state, visit http://www.bonds4jobs.com/index.html
2) Associated Prisoner Union of America- To my understanding this union is suppose to be a union for past offenders, that enables them to gain employment through a number of union contacts. To gain more information you can write to:
Associated Prisoners Union of America
APAU New Members Department
PO BOx 7893
Northbridge, CA 91327
If you have any trouble, or don’t know exactly what to say or ask for, I have devised a sample letter. You can contact me via the contact for with a valid email address and I will gladly forward you the attachment and you can input your information.
3) Hard2Hire.com- a job search website where many past offenders are able to find work
4) RGIS- A warehousing company that will hire a past offender if they meet certain criteria and is able to perform the job. To apply for a position in your area visit www.rgis.com
5) Seal Your Record- Many states have recognized the difficulty of gaining employment with information on your Cori. As a result they have implemented a system that will allow an offender to seal his/her record. The regulations and requirements vary state to state, and there are certain guidelines involved. However, to gain information on your state, google “seal criminal record in ______” and it will provide you with the information that you need.
There are many options for re entering the workforce, it’s just a matter of finding them. Whatever you do, don’t give up.
I want to get into the PI business. What are the best web sites on the Internet to get me started? Locating inmate records has already become part of my first case.
Hi Denyse,
I found one website I think is pretty good. it is http://www.einvestigator.com/links/license.htm, here they give you a lot of information on state to state licensing requirements, contact information, private training courses, etc. I hope it is a very good help for you.
I want to thank the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all previous efforts. I found http://www.dropmydime.com to be very interesting. I will be coming back to http://www.dropmydime.com for more information.
Thank you Loans,

Hi,this is Quentin Mcaulay,just found your Post on google and i must say this blog is great.may I share some of the article found in the post to my local students?i’m not sure and what you think?in any case,Thanks!
Hi Quentin,
I am glad that you found the post and are able to share with people. Absolutely share it with your class. There is not enough education out there on the options for people after imprisonment. That is not to say that we want people going to jail, but sometimes things do happen. If that situation does occur they need to know that not all hope is lost. Keep in touch, I will be posting more helpful information soon (a book in particular).
The Reality Guru
I admire the valuable info you offer in your content articles. I’ll bookmark your blog and have my children check up here often. I am quite sure they will understand lots of new stuff right here than anybody else!
Amazing blog post, this is very similar to a site that I have.
Please check it out sometime and feel free to leave me a comenet on it and tell me what you think. Im always looking for feedback.
I was reading something else about this on another blog. Interesting. Your position on it is diametrically contradicted to what I read earlier. I am still contemplating over the opposite points of view, but I’m tipped heavily toward yours. And no matter, that’s what is so great about modernized democracy and the marketplace of thoughts on-line.
Just want to say what a great blog you got here!
Hi Replica,
I am glad that you have found an opportunity to see and experience more than one view. I would be interested in learning the site of the other article that you were reading. It would be nice to check it out and get a chance to personally examine and compare the two. I am always interested in opposite and opinionated views. Although, the online medium is a very interesting one indeed. What is your personal positon on finding and the availability of gaining employment after imprsionment? Do you think the system is fair and just to those who have had to experience incarceration?

Surely the latest rumours about Delonte and Lebron’s mom couldn’t be true.. I mean, could they?!
Ellsworth Tuckett,
According to a news article I had read the accusations were not true. However, no one will really know other than the people involved.
