Preparing Prisoners for Work

June 5, 2012 by Steve Rempe

Crossroad Bible Institute, a collaborating ministry with Prison Fellowship’s Operation Starting Line, is offering a new resource to recently-released inmates to help them develop a strong work ethic and establish a career path that will keep them out of prison in the future.

Seven Secrets for Success in the Workplace is being sent to inmates as part of the Institute’s reentry training.  Written by CBI president Dr. H. David Schuringa, the book outlines potential pitfalls in employment, and helps readers to establish good work habits and attitudes that will help them be “agents for change.”

“The lack of a work ethic is part of what lands many people behind bars,” says Dr. Schuringa.  “My hope is that Seven Secrets will help them pave a new path upon release.”
