Company Description
Damascus is a non-profit prison reentry and staffing organization headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, dedicated to changing the narrative around incarceration and employment. Since 2002, the organization has worked alongside incarcerated and justice-involved individuals to help them go home, stay home, and become assets to their families, employers, and communities. Damascus combines evidence-informed correctional programming, community mobility support, and practical workforce solutions to create pathways to stable, permanent, full-time employment. Its Community Mobility efforts focus on informing, educating, and supporting participants so they can address poverty, set goals, and build sustainable careers, while its Correctional Programming prepares men and women before release with the mindset, skills, and structure needed to transition successfully. On the employer side, Damascus operates a staffing model built on reliability and productivity: equipped with business principles, wraparound support, and transportation, Damascus workers show up, get the job done, and help business owners meet production goals. In 2022, Damascus launched its leading-edge INployment program to bring real work opportunities and workforce preparation inside correctional and treatment facilities. In its first year, INployment engaged 158 participants who earned $356,000 in gross wages and completed 912,000 piecesresults the organization describes as a 100% community win that demonstrates measurable value for participants, employers, and institutions alike. Damascus partners with correctional and treatment facilities, community organizations, and regional employers to align training with real job opportunities, reduce barriers to work such as transportation, and accelerate time-to-productivity on the job. By integrating preparation, placement, and ongoing support, Damascus serves as a trusted bridge between motivated talent and employers across light industrial and production environments, advancing economic mobility while helping companies achieve consistent output, quality, and attendance. Through its mission-driven approach, Damascus aims to be the standard-bearer for unconventional and sustainable solutions in incarceration, reentry, and the workforce, elevating individuals, communities, corporations, and the country.
