Three ways to set people up for success after prison | Annelies Goger | TEDxSanQuentin

Each year we release nearly 650,000 incarcerated people into our communities, but we don’t set them up for success. In this talk, Dr. Annelies Goger shares three key obstacles to successful reentry and a solution for each. She argues that we can choose to reinvent our justice system to break cycles of violence in our communities and build institutions that give people a fair chance at success. Annelies Goger is passionate about closing the opportunity gap and recalibrating our economy and society so that it works for more people. As a Fellow at Brookings Metro in the Brookings Institution, Dr. Goger works with policymakers at federal, state, and local levels to reimagine various elements of our education, talent development, safety net, and career information ecosystem because we are leaving too many people behind. She is working with Brookings Senior Fellow Dr. Rashawn Ray on a project to scale access to quality educational opportunities, job readiness, and experiential learning for people transitioning from prison to employment using virtual reality technologies. Dr. Goger has a Ph.D. in economic geography and has published broadly in the areas of workforce and economic development, global supply chains, human-centered design of programs and services, and the business role in cultivating talent. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
