About this title

Synopsis

The State Pen Work Book is the foundation for Novum-U's 4-week Apprentice course. Each year it helps over 1,000 students in all Nevada prisons and camps learn skills needed to become successful by cultivating a financially secure life of meaning and purpose. Since 2011, Novum-U relentlessly pursues two 1) getting qualified people out of prison and 2) helping them learn the skills needed to stay out of prison [for good!]. Qualified individuals can join Novum-U as full-time students upon release from prison. Our goal is to help students identify and obtain career-oriented employment that is stable and meaningful to the student because such work is the best way to break the chains of recidivism. Unfortunately most returning citizens cannot easily obtain such work; (not because they are ex-felons) because they don't have the necessary skills --they need to learn the skills needed for the career. Novum-U helps its students learn such skills. However, in order to properly learn the necessary skills, students also need their basic needs met (Novum-U also provides housing, clothing, hygiene, smartphone, transportation, etc.) along with mental health counseling, education and foundational employment (i.e., all the things needed to create the highest probability of success). Novum-U is an independent, financially sustainable, business that receives no government grants which means that it must produce services that people are willing to pay for.
