America's $80 Billion Revolving Door

600K

People released from prison every year — most without housing, a job, or any support system.

82%

Rearrested within 10 years. Housing instability is the #1 predictor of recidivism.

$80B

Annual taxpayer burden — incarceration, policing, courts — with zero return.

"The question isn't whether we can afford to solve this. It's whether we can afford not to."

TradeWorks × FIU · The Opportunity

Two Massive Markets Colliding

500K+

Unfilled Skilled Trade Jobs

Electricians, plumbers, welders, carpenters — retiring faster than replaced. $55K–$75K average wages. No degree required.

600K+

Returning Citizens Annually

Capable, motivated men — an untapped labor pool America desperately needs but systematically excludes.

This property sits at the intersection.
