(Deer Lodge) – This week Montana Governor Greg Gianforte celebrated the launch of a new program at the Montana State Prison that provides workforce training and promises to reduce recidivism. The Last Mile provides business technology training to incarcerated individuals in facilities across the United States.
The Last Mile’s Web Development Program teaches participants to create websites and full stack web applications using industry standard technologies including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React Node, Express, and MongoDB.
Governor Gianforte Said “Today, I’m proud to welcome The Last Mile to Montana.” He continued “By providing incarcerated individuals with the tools they need to succeed and thrive in the workforce, we’ll help them successfully reenter with critical skills, reduce recidivism and make our communities safer and stronger.”
