Community Corrections Employability Skills

Community Corrections Employability Skills is a program that helps ex-offenders transition back into the workplace.

Participants are referred from Muskegon County probation/parole officers. Following a comprehensive assessment, participants attend employability skills-building classes and are assisted with job search activities. Once employment is secured, Goodwill follows up with both the program participant and the employer at 30, 60, and 90-day intervals to support job retention. The State of Michigan Department of Corrections, Office of Community Corrections, and the County of Muskegon fund the program. For more information contact Nancy Wambaugh at (231) 739-9010, ext.235.

Michigan Prison Re-Entry Initiative (MPRI)

MPRI is a statewide strategic approach to create safer neighborhoods and better citizens through the delivery of a seamless plan of services, programming, support, and supervision for prisoners re-entering the community. The primary goal of MPRI is to increase public safety by reducing crime. Investing in prevention, MPRI takes a proactive role to re-entry by preparing both the prisoner and community before re-entry occurs.

Funding and referral to this program is from the Michigan Department of corrections. For more information contact Goodwill Industries Workforce Development Center at (231) 739-9010.
