Overview of the webinar

Did you know that as many as 70 million Americans have some type of criminal record that can negatively impact their ability to find jobs?   Fair Chance hiring is designed to give individuals with criminal records greater employment opportunities. As it currently stands, 37 states and 250 municipalities have enacted fair chance or ban-the-box laws, and more states are following suit. Being a Fair Chance employer means that you base your employment decisions on job applicants’ qualifications rather than on their criminal records.
