breaking barriers for justice involved people.

Empowering Futures, Breaking Barriers, Reducing Recidivism

What do we do?

We transform the lives of justice-involved individuals, providing online learning, career training, and peer-to-peer mentorship programs. We foster personal mastery and create job opportunities within inclusive communities, working in tandem with local organizations to truly make a difference.

Why is this needed?

Individuals involved in our justice system often face barriers such as stigma, limited job opportunities, and reintegration challenges. Agencies struggle with overcrowding, high recidivism rates, and the lack of effective rehabilitation programs. We are offering a solution to help.

How do we do it?

We leverage peer mentorship and a state-of-the-art learning management system to provide accessible education. Our holistic support services cater to individual needs, while our emphasis on mindset and behavior change equips individuals with tools to lead productive lives, thus reducing recidivism rates.

Can I help?

Do you have a personal connection to someone navigating the justice system or feel driven to effect change? If so, you can make a difference with Go Remote USA. You could volunteer, contribute to our mission as a staff member, or form a strategic partnership with us. Let's work together to make a lasting impact.

Jesse Crosson

Board Member & Consultant

Jesse’s profound personal transformation, from a life of addiction and crime to becoming a force for change in criminal justice policy, makes him an ideal candidate for the Board of Directors at Go RemoteUSA. His lived experience of rehabilitation, coupled with his academic accomplishments and work as a journeyman electrician while incarcerated, offers invaluable insights and knowledge.

Since his sentence was commuted by the governor in 2021, Jesse has established himself as a national advocate for responsible criminal justice reform. His foundation, Second Chancer, and its subsequent initiative, Second Chancer Connect, focus on bridging the gap between incarceration and the prospect of rebuilding lives.

With a deep and authentic understanding of the subjects, Jesse is a passionate campaigner for healing, accountability, and reducing violence—the root issues of crime. His commitment to mentoring others on the path of rehabilitation resonates strongly with the ethos of Go RemoteUSA, making him an asset on our board.

"We cannot punish away trauma, addiction, or poverty, which are at the root of the vast majority of crimes."
