At Working Wardrobes, we believe in the power of second chances. Join us for Justice Reimagined: Rebuilding Lives Through Work—a transformative event that brings together community leaders, employers, and justice-impacted individuals to explore the true meaning of empowerment through employment.

This half-day event brings clients and donors together for meaningful, skill-building engagement. You’ll hear an inspiring client success story, participate in guided activities that pair clients with donors to practice interview and communication skills, and join a thought-provoking panel on the value of hiring justice-impacted talent. Attendees will gain practical insights into equitable hiring practices and receive an update on evolving employment laws shaping these opportunities.

Meet Our Moderator and Panelists

  • Steven Kim, Executive Director, Project Kinship
  • Lindsay Oglesby, CEO, Tax Relief Advocates
  • Caroline Scala, Partner, Fisher Phillips
  • Bianca Herrera, Director of Client Services, Working Wardrobes

Together, these leaders will share expertise, lived experience, and best practices to help create pathways to meaningful employment for those rebuilding after incarceration.

Why It Matters

For many justice-impacted individuals, re-entering the workforce is one of the greatest challenges they face. Employment provides more than a paycheck—it offers dignity, purpose, and a chance to rebuild one’s life. Through collaboration, compassion, and advocacy, we can open doors to brighter futures.
