Our Approach

More Than Training โ€” Transformation

We believe everyone deserves access to the dignity of skilled work and a living wage.

Second Chance Employment

We partner with employers who are committed to fair-chance hiring and evaluate candidates on skills, not history.

Pre-Release Training

Programs can begin inside correctional facilities, so participants are workforce-ready on day one of release.

Industry Certifications

Every participant earns the same nationally-recognized certifications as all MVVI graduates.

Job Placement Support

Dedicated career services including resume building, interview coaching, and direct employer introductions.

Wraparound Services

We coordinate with reentry organizations for housing, transportation, mentorship, and case management.

Mentorship Network

Connect with MVVI alumni and industry mentors who provide guidance through the transition.
