What does a federal grant for convicted felon do

Which federal grant is that, one that is used to open a half way house, or one to use to open a training center.

Do you think there is some free money for you when you get out of prison ?

Fr_Chuck: :mad: No, we don't think there's free money getting out of prison, or jail or where ever!! If you'd think for half a minute PAST the "free money" issue you'd hopefully realize that without something to get US back on the right track, we're going to go right back to our "old" ways (and MUCH easier money). I too am a felon, served time in jail... followed by rehab... now that I've got this 7 year suspended sentence hanging over my head for the next 5 years that I'm on probation... WHERE DO I WORK? In this economy, people with college degrees are having trouble finding ANY type of work. Its damn near impossible for a felon, unless we lie about it on applications, there'll be no chance to even BEG for a job. Now.. I know ways of making money, easy, quick money too. And you know what... the fact that I'm a felon will actually look GOOD on this kind of resume... SURE, I shouldn't have done what I did that got me convicted. However, am I now destoined to a life of poverty and "will work for food" signs? (In fact, That's illegal too)

Now don't go getting upset over what Fr_Chuck said,he simply was telling you the truth. Grants are complicated and when he asked what the grant was for
You totally got upset for no reason! No there is no free money for you or anyone else. I know the ecomony is bad right now,but keep trying and don't get angry when someone tries to help with advise

Again you don't know what you're talking about chuck... it appears to me you're nothing but a troll against felons... THERE IS GRANTS FOR FELONS! Both for small business and college. Look up a grant that's right for you on grants.gov abbinormyl apply to many not just one and keep your head up my dude. I'm also a convicted felon. Though I may not be interested in the grants myself I'm looking out for a friend of mine getting ready to hit the streets so he can succeed as well.
