Ex-offenders face slim job options despite tax credit
Frustration rises as programs like the Work Opportunity Tax Credit offer up to 2400 for felony hires, yet many employers still ignore applicants with criminal records. Kansas has seen over 1100 tax credit applications since 2010, totaling about 2.8 million in potential savings for firms. Low-wage, less-than-ideal job options push offenders like Kara Martin to cling to any opportunity while hoping vocational rehabilitation helps.
