In this session hosted by DC SHRM, the SHRM Foundation and Getting Talent Back to Work Subject Matter Expert, Dr. Genevieve Rimer from the Center for Employment Opportunities will discuss the value of second chance talent in the workplace. Specifically, Dr. Rimer will provide context to the challenges facing previously incarcerated candidates and the best practices for incorporating a DEI strategy that includes this critical population.
