“When you’re elderly and you apply for a job, it goes against you. They say age isn’t supposed to matter, but it does. And if you’ve been incarcerated, it’s a black mark against you; and you haven’t worked in a while, so that’s another mark against you. Coalition Employment is essential, it gives you a helping hand to get you off the street and establish yourself again.” |
