The UG-Chapman partnership benefits formerly incarcerated students who successfully complete the course as they will possess the experience and skills necessary to advance in higher education.<\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cThis partnership provides an educational experience for previously incarcerated youth who are seeking a path for a promising future.\u201d &#8211; Dr. Victoria Carty<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Carty is currently teaching a section of <a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.chapman.edu\/preview_course_nopop.php?catoid=11&amp;coid=29521\">SOC 225 Social Inequality\/Stratification<\/a> as an 8-week certificate course to a group of 13 students in UG\u2019s re-entry program. Dr. Carty teaches the students on Saturdays and has writing workshops on Wednesdays and Fridays. The program is in alignment with best practices in restorative justice and criminal justice reform in general by offering opportunities for change and a healthy outlook for the future. Importantly, this partnership puts Chapman\u2019s commitment to diversity into action by fostering a culture of equity and inclusion for traditionally marginalized populations.<\/p>\n<p>Correctional education has shown effectiveness by reducing recidivism rates by 43 percent, increasing employment chances by 13 percent, and has demonstrated a cost-effective approach that prevents recidivism and improves critical skills.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Carty has extensive community connections with underserved neighboring communities. In 2015, she initiated Chapman\u2019s partnership with<a href=\"https:\/\/www.highergroundoc.org\/\"> Higher Ground Youth and Family Services in Anaheim<\/a> (primarily a gang prevention program), has overseen dozens of internships and independent students, and developed three distinct courses with experiential learning at the site. To further promote the partnership, Dr. Carty has written in the local press to demonstrate our commitment to the community and encourage involvement from other local universities in colleges. Additionally, several local groups that work with underserved communities have invited her to give presentations.<\/p>\n<p>Wilkinson is proud of Dr. Carty, and honored to support her work with these programs!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/socal\/daily-pilot\/entertainment\/story\/2020-12-30\/chapman-university-nonprofit-course-incarcerated\">Chapman University and
