Associate Testimonial: "One of the things that helps getting clean is having a job. I had an appointment with Working Fields within days of getting out of Valley Vista and was immediately put to work. And if it wasn't for going to work and feeling productive and being in a new place, I wouldn’t be here for a year and now I’m looking at being a peer coach. I have things to look forward to."

Out of Prison & Out of Work: Unemployment Among Formerly Incarcerated People
At Working Fields, we know firsthand the immense value of fair chance hiring. With 40% of our associates, as well as our founder, having a felony on their record, providing second chances is at the core of our agency.
Research shows that formerly incarcerated individuals face unemployment rates nearly five times higher than the general U.S. population—numbers worse than the Great Depression. Yet, studies also show that individuals with past justice system involvement often excel in the workplace. Fair chance hiring isn't just about opportunity—it's about tapping into real talent.
Learn about the employment barriers faced by formerly incarcerated people in the Prison Policy Initiative's article, Out of Prison & Out of Work: Unemployment among formerly incarcerated people.
