about us

The Hire Purpose Commission
connects those at the Middle Peninsula Regional Security Center with meaningful career employment.

Our Mission

The Hire Purpose Commission is a workforce solution that serves the incarcerated, the justice system, the employers of our region and the community as a whole.   We are a conduit for successful outcomes that impact all of us on the Middle Peninsula, in Hampton Roads, and beyond.

Our Purpose

  • Introduce Middle Peninsula and Hampton Roads employers with an unexpected workforce solution.
  • Help the Middle Peninsula Regional Security Center reduce recidivism with meaningful career employment for those in their care.
  • Take advantage of pre-release time through proactivity, ensuring a better transition for justice involved individuals and the community.
  • Help the Jail Board optimize support, essential services, internal and external education, training, and job placement for regional employers.

“We love the mission of the Hire Purpose Commission and look forward to the positive impact in the community.”
