Empowering Transformation. Driving Revenue. Redefining Second Chances.

At Televerde, we believe second-chance employment doesn’t just change lives, it strengthens companies and communities. We equip incarcerated women with career training and meaningful employment, building resilient teams that drive sales and growth for our clients.

Second chances aren’t just our mission—they’re why our model works

Breaking Stereotypes and Building Futures.

Our model begins inside prison—where most business models stop.

We give incarcerated women more than a job. Through hands-on sales training, education, mentorship, and reentry support, we help them build skills, confidence, and a path to a meaningful career.

These women don’t just power our business. They make it stronger. And in the process, they prove what’s possible after incarceration.

Real Impact. Real Lives. Real Results.

We’re not here to check boxes. We’re here to make a difference—for people, for communities, and for our clients. The outcomes speak for themselves:

Financial Independence
Education & Advancement
Reduced Recidivism

Televerde graduates earn up to 4x more in lifetime wages than the national average for formerly incarcerated women.

84.4% of our graduates pursue higher education.

Our recidivism rate is 91% lower than the national average.
