Reentry efforts involve DAPO, DRP, MCRP, CCTRP
A graduation ceremony was held to honor the first cohort of the Construction Pre-Apprenticeship Training Program in the San Diego area.
Fourteen determined graduates, all recently released from California prisons, celebrated the completion of their training.
Now they have better chances at a promising future in the construction industry.
The graduation marks a significant milestone in the collaborative efforts involving:

- Division of Rehabilitative Programs (DRP)
- Male Community Reentry Program (MCRP)
- Custody to Community Transitional Reentry Program (CCTRP) San Diego facilities
- and the Career Expansion Pre-Apprenticeship Construction Training Agency.

Furthermore, the partnership marks the importance of providing individuals with the tools they need to rebuild their lives after facing hardship.
The graduates, having demonstrated their determination and commitment throughout the training program, now stand as models of the potential for positive change.
Armed with new skills and a renewed sense of purpose, they are set to make meaningful contributions to their communities.
