Arouet is a modern, innovative, fair-chance movement for individuals impacted by the criminal justice system. Arouet’s mission is to restore individuals, rebuild families, and positively impact communities.
This is achieved through a unique blend of programs and services that begins with a partnership with the Second Chance Center at Perryville Prison while the participants are still incarcerated and continue throughout every facet of their re-entry. The programs include rides and transportation support, clothes and other necessities, employment preparation training, resume building, job placement, financial workshops, credit builder loans, and engagement events to foster a sense of connection and belonging.
Women who participate in Televerde Foundation’s workforce development program are 91% less likely to re-offend and go back to prison.
Televerde Foundation provides currently and formerly incarcerated women “a path forward” to achieve their dreams by finding personal and professional success after release.
Its Prison to Professional Workforce Development Program focuses on personal growth, workplace readiness, professional development, employment strategies, financial literacy, lifelong learning, and mentoring for success.
