Fellow activist,
Did you know that NPP is a second chance organization? This means we hire, coach and mentor staff members who are formerly incarcerated, experiencing mental health issues and potentially in recovery.
To assist us in our employment efforts of those from impacted communities, NPP has fostered a relationship with a re-entry program, PAR-Recycle Works. Through PAR's program, NPP was able to hire formerly incarcerated Philadelphians to work in the communities we serve. This working partnership allows NPP to continue to invest in well-trained, work-ready Philadelphians while also supporting PAR's mission of securing sustainable employment for the returning citizens who graduate from their program.
And here’s the thing: Individuals with various lived experiences make some of the most trusted messengers in the communities we center. Our staff have shown tireless dedication and commitment to engaging historically disenfranchised communities in Philadelphia and ensuring eligible voters feel compelled to exercise their freedom to vote in the Commonwealth.
