REFORM Alliance and Jay-Z’s Roc Nation joined forces Friday, Oct. 18, 2024, by hosting a job fair in Richmond, VA, that connected over 2,000 job seekers with more than 1,500 open positions. The job fair also featured numerous state and local government agencies, such as the Virginia Department of Corrections, the Virginia Department of Transportation, Virginia State University, and the City of Richmond. Founded by Jay-Z, Robert F. Smith, and others, REFORM Alliance also counts Meek Mill and Michael Rubin as board co-chairs. “REFORM is proud to be a part of the community here in Virginia and open doors for justice-impacted individuals. Every job secured today is a step towards breaking the cycle of recidivism and creating more just and safe communities.”
