Description
Second Chance has been serving employment needs in San Diego County since 1993. They provide a second chance to people who may have barriers to employment.
At one point in his life, Decarlos Gonzalez found himself on the wrong side of the law.
"I want to leave that in the past because that's not who I am today because people make mistakes. You can't dwell on our failures because we are good people," said Gonzalez.
Since he’s been released from jail, Gonzalez graduated from the Second Chance Job Readiness Training Program. Second Chance is a non-profit that provides people who were once behind bars with skills and resources to successfully re-enter the community and work force.
