Who: City of Columbia Office of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement and Goodwill Industries
What: April is Second Chance Month. Everyone Deserves a Second Chance.
Join us in honoring Second Chance Month – a time to recognize the importance of redemption, rehabilitation, and the opportunity for new beginnings. Millions of Americans with a criminal record face barriers to housing, employment, education, and more – long after they’ve served their time. Second Chance Month is a call to action: to offer hope, open doors, and build a future where everyone can thrive.
Get involved, support fair chance hiring, learn about reentry programs in our community, hear from local Credible Messengers with real life experiences of reentry, attend local events and awareness workshops, and advocate for policies that promote reintegration and justice. Together, we can restore dignity and opportunity.
When: Saturday, April 26, 2025 from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
Where: 2744 Decker Blvd. Columbia, SC 29206
