(CEO) IS A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO PROVIDING IMMEDIATE, EFFECTIVE, AND COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYMENT SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS RETURNING HOME AFTER INCARCERATION. CEO'S THEORY OF CHANGE POSITS THAT IF THE EMPLOYMENT NEEDS OF PEOPLE WITH CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS ARE MET WHEN THEY ARE FIRST RELEASED FROM INCARCERATION, THEY ARE LESS LIKELY TO RECIDIVATE AND ARE BETTER ABLE TO BUILD A FOUNDATION FOR A STABLE, PRODUCTIVE LIFE. CEO DELIVERS EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAMMING THAT IS SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR IN EACH OF ITS OFFICES ACROSS TWELVE STATES. CEO'S PROGRAM PROVIDES EACH PARTICIPANT A PAID ORIENTATION, FOLLOWED BY PAID WORK ON CEO'S SOCIAL ENTERPRISE SUPERVISED BY CEO PERMANENT STAFF (TRANSITIONAL WORK). CONCURRENT WITH TRANSITIONAL WORK, CEO PROVIDES WORKSHOP-BASED LIFE SKILLS, DIGITAL SKILLS AND JOB READINESS SUPPORT, INDIVIDUALIZED JOB COACHING AND JOB PLACEMENT SERVICES TO HELP INDIVIDUALS FIND FULL TIME EMPLOYMENT. PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS THEN RECEIVE JOB RETENTION SUPPORT TO HELP THEM ADVANCE WITHIN THE LABOR MARKET AND STAY CONNECTED TO WORK. THROUGHOUT THE PROGRAM THEY ALSO HAVE ACCESS TO OTHER SKILL-BUILDING TRAININGS. CEO'S MODEL HAS BEEN THE SUBJECT OF THIRD-PARTY EVALUATIONS WHICH HAVE FOUND THAT THE PROGRAM MODEL IS EFFECTIVE IN REDUCING RECIDIVISM AND INCREASING EMPLOYMENT, THEREBY PROVIDING BENEFIT TO THOSE PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS, THEIR FAMILIES, AND THEIR COMMUNITIES, AS WELL AS SIGNIFICANT COST SAVINGS TO GOVERNMENT AND THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM. CEO BEGAN AS A VERA INSTITUTE OF JUSTICE DEMONSTRATION PROJECT IN THE 1970S. CEO WAS SEPARATELY ESTABLISHED IN 1996 AND HAS GROWN SIGNIFICANTLY SINCE THEN. IN FISCAL YEAR 2024, CEO HAD 31 OFFICES IN TWELVE STATES - CALIFORNIA, COLORADO, GEORGIA, KENTUCKY, LOUISIANA, MICHIGAN, NEW YORK, NORTH CAROLINA, OHIO, OKLAHOMA, PENNSYLVANIA, AND TENNESSEE. CEO'S VISION IS THAT ANYONE WITH A RECENT CRIMINAL HISTORY WHO WANTS TO WORK HAS THE PREPARATION AND SUPPORT NEEDED TO FIND A JOB AND TO STAY CONNECTED TO THE LABOR FORCE. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A TRANSITION WORK PROGRAM - IMMEDIATE WORK FOR DAILY PAY: AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, AFTER ORIENTATION, CEO PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS WORK ON TRANSITIONAL WORK CREWS. EACH TRANSITIONAL WORK CREW IS COMPRISED OF APPROXIMATELY 5-8 PARTICIPANTS WHO WORK FOR, AND ARE PAID BY, CEO. EACH TRANSITIONAL WORK CREW IS RUN AND SUPERVISED BY A SITE SUPERVISOR, A PERMANENT CEO EMPLOYEE. IN FY2025, CEO PROVIDED TRANSITIONAL EMPLOYMENT TO 8,145 FORMERLY INCARCERATED PERSONS THROUGH ITS 30 OFFICES. CEO'S TRANSITIONAL WORK CREWS ARE TYPICALLY FUNDED BY THE ENTITY RECEIVING THE CREW SERVICES. CEO HAS ESTABLISHED CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH A VARIETY OF GOVERNMENT AGENCIES (SUCH AS PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENTS, HOUSING AUTHORITIES, AND TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENTS) AND CERTAIN PRIVATE EMPLOYERS FOR SERVICES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO GROUNDSKEEPING, BUILDING MAINTENANCE, LITTER ABATEMENT, AND EVENT SETUP AND BREAKDOWN. THE TRANSITIONAL WORK SETTING BENEFITS PARTICIPANTS IN SEVERAL WAYS. FIRST, ALL PARTICIPANTS CAN BEGIN WORKING IMMEDIATELY AFTER COMPLETING ORIENTATION. CEO PAYS EACH MEMBER OF A WORK CREW ON A DAILY BASIS, PROVIDING AN IMPORTANT SOURCE OF INCOME. THE DAILY PAY SCHEDULE ELIMINATES THE INCOME TIMING GAP INHERENT IN BI-WEEKLY OR MONTHLY PAY CYCLES. SECOND, THE CLOSE SUPERVISION PROVIDED BY THE TRAINED PERMANENT SUPERVISOR TO A SMALL NUMBER OF PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS ENABLES SUPERVISORS TO CLOSELY GUIDE AND COACH EACH WORK CREW MEMBER. THE TRANSITIONAL WORK MODEL ALSO FACILITATES PARTICIPANTS IN SUPPORTING ONE ANOTHER AND GAINING MOTIVATION FROM EACH OTHER'S SUCCESSES. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B VOCATIONAL TRAINING: CONCURRENT WITH TRANSITIONAL WORK, CEO PROVIDES VOCATIONAL TRAINING AND SUPPORT SERVICES. DURING THE PERIOD THAT PARTICIPANTS ARE WORKING ON TRANSITIONAL WORK CREWS, THEY TYPICALLY MEET WITH A JOB COACH ONE DAY PER WEEK. JOB COACHES REINFORCE THE LESSONS LEARNED DURING TRANSITIONAL WORK, COACH PARTICIPANTS ON JOB PERFORMANCE AND BEHAVIORS, AND ASSIST PARTICIPANTS WITH ANY ISSUES THAT MAY ARISE DURING THEIR TRANSITIONAL WORK EXPERIENCE. DURING THIS TIME CEO ALSO OFFERS WORKSHOPS FOR PARTICIPANTS TO BUILD FINANCIAL SKILLS, IMPROVE DIGITAL LITERACY, AND EFFECTIVELY COMPLETE ONLINE JOB APPLICATIONS. AFTER A PARTICIPANT SHOWS CONSISTENT, HIGH-PERFORMING WORKPLACE BEHAVIORS, HAS INTERVIEW SKILLS, AND HAS RESOLVED EXTERNAL BARRIERS TO EMPLOYMENT, JOB COACHES ASSESS THE PARTICIPANT AS "JOB START READY AND ASSIGN THEM TO A BUSINESS ACCOUNT MANAGER (BAM). BAMS WORK DIRECTLY WITH EMPLOYERS TO IDENTIFY LABOR MARKET NEEDS AND POTENTIAL JOB OPPORTUNITIES. BAMS THEN MATCH ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANTS WITH EMPLOYERS. SINCE BECOMING AN INDEPENDENT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION IN 1996, CEO HAS MADE MORE THAN 51,000 FULL-TIME JOB PLACEMENTS FOR FORMERLY INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS. IN FY2024, CEO'S EMPLOYMENT SERVICES RESULTED IN 3,875 FULL-TIME JOB PLACEMENTS IN A VARIETY OF INDUSTRIES AND SECTORS SUCH AS FOOD SERVICE, RETAIL, WHOLESALE, MANUFACTURING, HUMAN SERVICES, CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE, AND WAREHOUSING. AFTER PARTICIPANTS BEGIN WORKING IN PERMANENT JOBS, THEY MEET REGULARLY WITH A CEO RETENTION SPECIALIST. RETENTION SPECIALISTS WORK WITH EACH PARTICIPANT TO HELP THAT INDIVIDUAL REMAIN CONNECTED TO THE WORKFORCE. RETENTION SPECIALISTS OFFER WORKPLACE COUNSELING, CRISIS MANAGEMENT, NEW JOB DEVELOPMENT IN THE EVENT OF A JOB LOSS, AND LONG-TERM CAREER PLANNING FOR ONE YEAR AFTER PLACEMENT. AN INCENTIVE-BASED JOB RETENTION PROGRAM ALSO REWARDS PARTICIPANTS THE LONGER THEY REMAIN EMPLOYED DURING THAT FIRST YEAR.

CEO WORKS TO ASSIST MID-SIZED AND LARGE PRIVATE SECTOR EMPLOYERS IN IMPROVING THEIR HIRING AND TALENT PRACTICES WITH A VIEW TO CREATING MORE JOB OPPORTUNITIES AND CAREER MOBILITY FOR JOB SEEKERS WITH PAST CONVICTIONS. IN ADDITION, THE INCLUSIVE HIRING PROGRAM PROVIDES SUPPORT TO PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYERS IN BUILDING LOCAL EMPLOYMENT PIPELINES FOR JOB SEEKERS ACROSS MULTIPLE MARKETS, INCLUDING CITIES WHERE CEO OPERATES.
