Committed to Bridging the Gap
Teamwork Englewood is dedicated to providing holistic services and advocating for returning residents. Our multifaceted strategies–legal support, innovative job training, community education, and more–are designed to empower participants by facilitating access to opportunities that they historically have not had. Bridging the gap between release from incarceration and successful reintegration into society is not only a win for the Greater Englewood community, but it is a social and economic win for the city of Chicago at large.
We assist our participants with finding employers who hire people with current or previous involvement in the criminal justice system. Through intentional relationship building, we have been able to foster employment partnerships with a diverse range of employers across the city and the Chicagoland area–ensuring a wide variety of opportunities for our participants. Through these partnerships within the sectors of skilled trades, healthcare, security, food service, and hospitality, we have been able to connect clients to jobs and environments where they can thrive and positively contribute to their families and society.
