Partners

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

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.  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.
