Second Generation Reentry employs the critical necessity of industry recognized skill-based certification as the foundational training for long term successful employment. The New Jersey Reentry Corporation (NJRC) is committed to providing our participants with our traditional wraparound services, including state and federal benefits, healthcare, legal services, housing referrals, and employment. Yet, employment now requires that NJRC tests, determine appropriate career tracks, and provide the necessary skill training and apprenticeship to establish a career.

The 25,000 square foot Governor's Reentry Training & Employment Center in Kearny, NJ, is a generous offering of Wendy Neu of the Hugo Neu Corporation. The facility houses 9 classrooms and conference spaces where NJRC participants will receive training in six (6) major certification skill sets: 1) Solar Technology, 2) Construction Industry, 3) CISCO Certification Networking Technician Certification, 4) Automobile Mechanics Training, 5) SEIU/Healthcare Maintenance, 6) GED/high school diploma, as well as, providing private access to Telemedicine and Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT).

Private business partners will work in partnership with NJDOL accredited training vendors to provide a substantive apprenticeship training. NJRC is currently recruiting program participants for the commencement of training classes, which will begin on Monday, April 26th.

The Governor's Reentry Training & Employment Center and the NJRC “employer network” will mentor NJRC program participants who have enrolled in the center with an employer onboarding process for those who have been deemed “work ready,” obtained certification, and have been federally bonded for employment.
