AI Summary

This bill establishes the Second Chance Program, which is designed to provide real and lasting career opportunities for formerly incarcerated individuals through collaboration with labor organizations. The program aims to reduce recidivism by addressing the lack of viable employment opportunities for recently released individuals. The bill recognizes that employment is crucial for reintegrating formerly incarcerated individuals back into society and that labor organizations, with their understanding of community economic conditions, are well-positioned to identify and attract employment opportunities in their respective trades.
