Manage a Project with Digital Tools

This Event Series is dedicated to the Justice Impacted Individuals and communities with their families (USA Only)

We want to equip people who have been impacted by the justice system with digital skills that will help them get a job or start a business.

This event is hosted in collaboration with Grow with Google

In June 2022, Google launched the $4 million Grow with Google Fund for Justice-Impacted Communities to enable organizations to teach digital skills to people who have been impacted by the justice system.
ITExperience was one of the organizations selected to give this training.

Together we will create a more inclusive economy committed to helping people impacted by incarceration access training for today’s jobs.
