As a champion in the second-chance space, Goodwill Industries of Kentucky was proud to celebrate Second Chance Month in April, a time to raise awareness and improve perceptions of justice-involved individuals, encourage second-chance opportunities and fair-chance hiring and drive momentum for policy change throughout the country. To commemorate the month, Goodwill hosted a series of statewide reentry events to bring to light the challenges formerly incarcerated individuals face.
