Hats off to the graduates on a job well done! The commencement ceremony this month at the Nebraska State Penitentiary (NSP) recognized men who have completed requirements for a high school diploma or GED, plus one graduate who received a bachelor’s degree. These men worked hard to finish something that, in some cases, they started many years ago. Congratulations, and thank you to all those who have supported these graduates along the way! #BuildYourFutureRead more
Employment is one of the pillars of successful reentry. This spring, team members from the Community Corrections Center - Lincoln (CCC-L) toured a local company that employs individuals at CCC-L who are on work release.
It was a fantastic experience for these teammates to see in action the job skills and experience these individuals are gaining as they prepare for reentry. #BuildYourFuture
