This sounds like you can really make a difference! I have a family member that had been repeatedly incarcerated - mostly for minor drinking offenses (public intoxication, fighting, etc.) but it happened enough he was considered a habitual offender. After several years, I think it was clear that he thought jail was easier and he had no idea how to transition to real life, and getting a job and meaningful employment was obviously harder to do. I wonder how much recidivism rates are linked to the fact that felons don't know how to transition back to normal life. What meaningful work! Good luck with your second interview.
