Missouri Vocational Enterprises
Description
Missouri Vocational Enterprises provides employment opportunities and job training to currently incarcerated individuals. Their unique program is designed to support individuals in the custody of the state with a goal to help them develop vocational skills and workforce education. Missouri Vocational Enterprises' success stems from both the high quality of the merchandise that is created, as well as the individuals who create those products. Staff believe in serving the underserved and recognize the value in Missouri's incarcerated population. The organization works in close collaboration with the Missouri Department of Corrections to connect eligible individuals with job opportunities while they serve out their sentences. Their hope is that real world experience and skills development will work to ease the transition back into the community once participants are released, ultimately reducing recidivism rates and setting individuals up for success in the community.
