Episode 06
Entrepreneurship and Re-Entry
Episode Summary
In this episode, we will focus on the topic of entrepreneurship and reentry. As you may already know, people with a felony record often face many obstacles when seeking employment or applying for a job. This is perhaps one of the reasons why many formerly incarcerated men and women decide to start their own businesses. You will meet Kate Mereand, Program Manager for the Innovation and Equitable Development Office at the D.C. Department of Small and Local Business Development. You will also hear from a couple of Returning Citizens who are graduates of the ASPIRE program and have successfully started their own businesses.
