What was said

"We needed like over $100 grand to kind of get the ball rolling here. And they cut the check. There was no arguing."

One Solutions ProWest, the private equity-backed parent company, immediately funded over $100,000 to launch the prison-to-workforce roofing program without resistance, according to program director Adam Chonier. The investment supports training infrastructure across 17 states and multiple prison facilities, representing an unusual corporate commitment to second-chance hiring at scale.
