Utah to Help Ex-Cons Find Jobs
By Erik Even | Dated: 05-21-2009
Utah will spend $1 million in federal stimulus finds to help probationers and parolees find jobs in the state.The cash is part of $9.9 million in Recovery Act funds that will go to Utah for criminal justice related programs.
The Offender Employment Coordination program itself will employ 12 probation and parole agents, who will match ex-prisoners with employers.
The hope is that gainfully employed ex-cons will not re-offend.

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
