Fair Chance in Action: Challenges One in Three Americans Face and Candidates Who Find Success
Watch the Checkr Forward 2021 Keynote session featuring fair chance talent talking candidly about their journeys from incarceration to employment.








According to the Prison Policy Initiative, formerly incarcerated people are unemployed at a rate of over 27% higher than the total U.S. unemployment rate during any historical period. The best way to truly understand the impact of finding work after incarceration? Walk in the shoes of those who have lived through it—and found success.
We’ll hear from Checkr and customer employees, who will share their struggles to find meaningful work and how, through their determination, they are now contributing to their companies and building their lives.
