The US Small Business Administration and the Western Women’s Business Center will deliver a second chance workshop. The workshop is for those who have been incarcerated and want that second chance at being an entrepreneur and giving back to their community. We start by saying it’s not an easy path, but one must know their options to make changes. We will share why fixing your credit score is key and then how to hone in on what it takes to run a business, what goes into the business plan, and how to access capital. Our goal is to show you how you can turn the skills you had or the ones that you learned while incarcerated into making a better future for yourself. Find out how to turn those acquired skills gained from beauty/barber courses, culinary classes, computer classes, writing, business courses and more into a future.
