Description:

The majority of men of color incarcerated in America were convicted of distributing narcotics or some form of illegal hustling. Many committed these crimes in order to make ends meet in an attempt to take care of self or family. We believe in creating opportunities for the returned citizens to practice positive entrepreneurship. Discussions will cover challenges, solutions, sharing of success stories, and possible partnerships with business community and government. For more info, call Reentry Legal Services 202-210-1223
