Join the Eastern State Center for Justice Education and Petey Greene Program for a powerful conversation with industry leaders championing second chances through employment. This panel explores how fair chance hiring creates pathways to economic freedom—particularly for those impacted by the justice system. Moderated by Jeffrey Abramowitz, CEO, Petey Greene Program and featuring voices from the culinary world, including team members from EDWINS Leadership & Restaurant Institute and The Hart of Catering, we’ll dive into how these organizations are transforming lives through training, mentorship, and meaningful work. Learn how inclusive hiring practices not only change individual futures but also strengthen businesses and communities.
