Digital skills training for people impacted by the justice system

With the help of organizations across the country, we’re equipping formerly incarcerated and justice-impacted people with critical digital skills they can use to get a job or start a business.

FUNDING FOR JUSTICE-IMPACTED COMMUNITIES

In June 2022, we 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. More than 500 organizations applied, and we've selected over 65 that have a proven track record of supporting justice-impacted communities and have the capacity to provide digital skills training at scale.
