The best shot at a _second chance_THE PROBLEM
Even though someone has served their time, a second sentence begins as soon as they’re released. It creates a revolving door to prison and a legacy of poverty, dependency, violence, and incarceration that is passed down through generations. * More than 5 million formerly incarcerated people live in the U.S. * 1 year after release, up to 60% are not employed. * Unemployment rate is over 5x higher than the general populationTHE SOLUTION
Defy’s entrepreneurial programs enable one of America’s largest forgotten communities to defy the odds. We equip them with new skills, new connections, and a new belief to match their new purpose, and succeed in their new life of economic independence. 82% employment rate for Defy post-release program 7.2% recidivism rate for Defy Graduates CA spends $81,000 to incarcerate 1 person, Defy spends $1,000 perin-prison graduate
