关于我们
Mission: Launch, Inc. transforms the lives of women and men returning home from prison and/or jails in America who are committed to scripting a new narrative for their own lives. Mission: Launch believes once a person has successfully completed their prison sentence they need to be quickly reintegrated back into society. To that end, we help individuals identify their unique, marketable talents in order to create supplementary and/or sustainable wages, often as entrepreneurs. Our programs include technical/coding training, entrepreneurship training, professional mentoring and business incubation and leadership development. Additionally, we founded and managed the Rebuilding Re-Entry Coalition. A collective of thinkers, creative-types and doers. All committed to making the prison re-integration/re-entry process more effective and efficient.
