Partners

WorkWell is a collaboration among partners. Partners offer expertise, time and resources to help us best serve individuals adjusting to life beyond prison.

Our mission

Working together to equip returning citizens
with job skills, dignity and hope

Our vision

Removing walls,
Building community

People re-entering life beyond prison bars face difficult challenges. Ways to help include:

  1. Offering employment opportunities. If your organization is willing to give a chance to motivated individuals with limited formal work experience, please contact us at info@workwellpartnership.org.
  2. Donating. WorkWell received $17,675 in contributions from 46 donors during 2020. Every dollar – and every donor – helps us help returning citizens build a life beyond prison. If you would like to donate, click here.
  3. Volunteering. WorkWell is always looking for dedicated volunteers to support program operations, help with fundraising, and serve on its advisory board. To explore how your interest aligns with our needs, contact Executive Director Jeannette Rizk at jrizk@workwellpartnership.org.
  4. Underwriting. If you or your organization is interested in being a major financial partner, contact Executive Director Jeannette Rizk at jrizk@workwellpartnership.org.
