Bridgeport, United States EMERGE Connecticut, Inc. Full time

**About the organization**

Based in New Haven, EMERGE Connecticut is a nonprofit social enterprise committed to assisting formerly incarcerated people ages 18 and older to successfully integrate back into their families and communities statewide. We work alongside people returning home as they seek a supportive and healthy transition from incarceration through paid employment, training, peer-mentorship, coaching, tutoring, and other trauma-informed services. EMERGE’s reentry model has proven successful in New Haven since July 2011 where just 11% of EMERGE crewmembers returned to prison on a new conviction within two years of their enrollment—in contrast to over one-third of people nationwide (BOJ, 2021).
