The Opening Doors project is an admiral attempt to reach a somewhat forgotten group, i.e., those who are incarcerated.
I am curious to know WHO is doing the outreach to these women. Will you be incorporating successful graduates of this program and/or members of this population in doing your outreach? As these women work towards their goal, it is important that they can establish communication with those who understand their plight, can witness actual success outcomes, and can have access to a variety of career opportunities.
I enjoyed connecting at-risk youth to different career options at a local high school. I would love to volunteer to help.
