You Are Not Your Past.
Apprenticeship 2 Entrepreneurship brings technology and workforce training to underserved communities — and walks second chance citizens from day one to ownership.
“We were given a second chance. Now we're building a future we own.”
I Was Where You Are.
Now I'm Here to Get You Where I Am.
“We both walked out of prison. We built A2E so no one has to face that first day out alone.”
Terrence — The day I walked out after 29 years, I felt fear and relief all at once. I'd given away everything I owned to the men still inside. But I didn't come home to nothing — I came home through a program that handed me a path while I was still locked up. Too many walk out with none of that. That's who this is for.
RonnAnita — People forget that women go to prison too. I did. When I came home, the world had moved on without me — I didn't know what Uber was, or how to work a smartphone. So hear me: you are not dumb. It's okay to not know, and to take one step at a time. When I was overwhelmed, it would have meant everything to have someone who'd been where I'd been just sit with me — that's what A2E is.
Because someone did this for us — and now it's your turn.
