This half-day convening celebrates the second anniversary of Pell grant reauthorization for college programs in jails and prisons. The cross-sector gathering will bring together Virginia leaders from business, economic development, higher education, government, corrections, non-profit and faith communities to explore how college programs in prisons can advance Virginia’s talent expansion strategy, while meaningfully addressing projected long-term workforce shortages. Jeffrey Korzenik, the keynote speaker, is the author of Untapped Talent: How Second Chance Hiring Works for your Business and the Community.
