Great morning discussing at the @charmeckschools inaugural Partnership Summit: Engage, Empower, Elevate. Thanks to all of the attendees and to our Strategic Partnerships team for organizing. Thanks also to our hosts @jcsuniversity and President Dr. Valerie Kinloch.

Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the lives of the four officers lost in the line of duty on April 29. Our thoughts & prayers go out to the families of the fallen and injured officers. We are forever grateful for the service of those who keep our communities safe. #CharlotteStrong

While some employers may be open to hiring people with records, research shows that applicants who disclose their records are about 50% less likely to receive a callback or job offer. Everyone deserves a fair chance at finding work. Report by @prisonpolicy
