Pittsburgh Community Services, Inc. (PCSI) is committed to supporting individuals in our community who are navigating the challenges of past criminal records, whether those records are from long ago or part of a recent return from incarceration.

As part of this ongoing work, PCSI recently participated in the Allegheny County Anchored Reentry (ACAR) summit at the Community College of Allegheny County (CCAC), where staff connected with partners and community members focused on expanding access to opportunity. During the summit, PCSI Case Manager James Blount had the opportunity to meet Pittsburgh Mayor Corey O’Connor, highlighting the collaborative effort across organizations and local leadership to support second chances.

As part of our continued efforts to support second chances, PCSI will host a Job & Resource Fair with Record Clearing Information Sessions on Friday, March 27.
