In Fall 2025, four participants in WorkSource Montgomery’s Dual Track Re-Entry (DTR) program completed the Flikshop School of Business while enrolled at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility. Through the program, they explored entrepreneurship, business fundamentals, and professional skills designed to help them prepare for future opportunities and successful reentry into the community.
At WorkSource Montgomery, we partnered with Flikshop to bring this opportunity to participants through our DTR program. Throughout the cohort, participants engaged in hands-on learning, developed business concepts based on their interests and goals, and worked collaboratively to strengthen their knowledge and confidence. Their efforts culminated in a pitch competition held at the facility, where they presented their business ideas to staff and partners.
Completing the program represented an important milestone in each participant’s journey. Beyond developing new skills, the cohort provided opportunities to build confidence, strengthen problem-solving abilities, and create plans for future success. Their achievement reflected the determination and commitment required to pursue personal and professional growth while preparing for life after release.
