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!

forget those idiots.  I have a felony and I can't get a job, cant vote, and finding a place to live is almost impossible.  (I have felony for smuggling in tabacco in a penial institution)  they concider tabacco a narcotic. Anyways you can file for an expungement.  Which means you can clean ur record after 3 or five years after you serve ur time, whether it is corrections or probation.

With that education a job as an outreach counselor sounds in line. Try contacting social services and find out where CPS refers their clients. Many of the organizations that CPS refers their clients to for rehab services are staffed mainly by ex users / offenders. I would think you or whoever would be welcomed with open arms. They like staff that knows both sides of the fence.

Try Burger King, they seem to employ a lot of ex-cons in my area.

there usually is a website for all correction centers listed under the name of state. You may also have some luck with monster.com and employer web sites similar to it.  Good luck

There 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.

A few good resources I would suggest are:\n\nYour local unemployment office.  Organizations that are affiliated with State Government are usually required to post their jobs in the state Unemployment system.  Also look at ajb.com because they are a good resource for state and federal jobs.\n\nIndeed.com is an aggregator of online job search engines including Google, CareerBuilder and Craig's List.  \n\nPhiladelphia would have a chapter of Jewish Vocational Services which provide many free services including Job Counseling and Networking Groups.  Their services are open to people of all religions.  \n\nGood Luck in your search,\n\nMichael

I'm guessing you are meaning in Ohio correct? I have found a couple different sights that are helpful. The unemployment website has a search for jobs in Ohio, and I also look in the Columbus dispatch or www.10tv.com. I hope this helps.

Do you have a county seat / county courthouse?\nTry looking at the county job board...anything from clerk to seasonal park custodian should be listed. Cities also hire for street repair. Construction companies hire laborers; from swinging a hammer to laying concrete.\nLastly, try Manpower or Kelly Temp services.\nGood luck!
