That has to come in parallel with a bunch of lower-skill job programs centered around prisons with the highest non-violent drug-related offense inmates about to be released. The current system makes the unemployment issue seem a bit less, but it also lets the corporations who contract out prisoners for work make a killing. It's a modern form of slavery. Though as others have noted, while this is an important issue, solving it wouldn't give us the greatest bang-for-buck so to speak. If we can solve it concurrently with other problems, all the better, but there are sadly bigger issues...
