I dont know how to find a job for  convicted felons but I would suggest (if you can) try contacting your probation officer. Ask them about any job placements and also ask about any programs to "volunteer" . If you can prove that your a new person to an employer that would help . Volunteering would look great on a job ap!

I would suggest posting wanted ads in Saskatchewan and Manitoba newspapers. The job market isn't anywhere near what it is in Edmonton.

Look for your local Workforce Investment Act (WIA) program.  They assist people in going back to work regardless of their income level or felony background (although they do want you to disclose it).\n\nYou can also contact the county welfare office.  There are people who are getting food stamps/cash assistance and are required to work in exchange for those services.  Someone in the welfare office assigns them to WEP.  That WEP Case Worker will be able to tell you where people can get jobs if they have felonies.  Your local prison will also tell you.  They usually have a back to work program and can tell you where they place their guys.  Good luck!

I live in Macon. I don't know of any, but maybe I could be of assistance. I would not charge anything until I see the material and make sure that I can help. But I would be limited to weekends. Send me an email at kbradford01061977@yahoo.com if you are interested. (We would have to meet in a public place)

yes, call and ask. I am entering a crimal justice program where I will work over 40 hours with them. If you are interested and ready to learn, I'm sure they will help.

No, there are no federal grants for convicted felons. \n\nYou can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently.\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nThere is a non-profit organization called Prison Entrepreneurship Program which is described as "a Houston-based nonprofit organization that leverages the skills of senior business executives to constructively redirect these talents and equip inmates and former inmates with entrepreneurial training—enabling them to productively re-enter society."\n\nhttp://prisonentrepreneurship.org/\n\nAs for small business loans, felons typically find it hard to get one, even SBA. SBA adopts a "cautious" approach to lending to felons and oftentimes bases its decision on how serious the crime committed was and whether there is strong likelihood that the offense will be repeated again.

Check out www.craigslist.org -- It's a great site for jobs in most major cities.

I believe you're looking for the Minnesota Correctional Facility in Rush City, Minnesota, which is about 10 miles south of Pine City.  The website address is http://www.doc.state.mn.us/facilities/rushcity.htm, and the site contains an aerial photo, contact information, and virtual tours of the facility.

There's NONE. There are no federal grants for convicted felons. Even for non-felons, there are hardly any available grant monies to help start a business.\n\nYou can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants.

I just did a quick search on Indeed.com, an "aggregator" site which pulls jobs off the big sites like Monster, HotJobs, and CareerBuilder as well as newspaper classifieds, smaller job sites, and employer sites.\n\nAnd the Indeed.com results looked pretty promising to me -\nAll jobs in Sheboygan, WI - 3,823 listed\nCustomer service jobs in Sheboygan - 706 listed\nDispatcher jobs in Sheboygan - 1 listed\n\nAnd, of course, those are just the jobs that are posted, which is supposed to be only 15% to 20% of all the opportunities available at any given point in time.\n\nAnd, I also checked Job-Hunt.org, which lists thousands of employers, job search, and career resources by state.  It has nearly 100 listings for Wisconsin, and 3 employers are listed specifically in Sheboygan or Sheboygan Falls.\n\nThere must be other potential employers in nearby towns, but I didn't know the names to use for searching.\n\nLooks pretty promising to me, although no one gets any guarantees.  I bet once you start meeting people (church, your kids' schools, grocery store, beauty salon, gym, etc.), you'll discover other opportunities.  If there's a Welcome Wagon or Newcomers Club, get involved in that, too.\n\nGood luck!
