Identifying the problem is the 1st step to positively impacting society. Reducing recidivism is a complex challenge. The Vision Track covers different communication mediums through which we spark needed discourse on today’s criminal justice system. buff.ly/399QO7y

We are thankful for all people who have helped build our dreams into a reality. Everyone here at Project Reclass hopes you and your family have a safe and happy holiday!

Happy Thanksgiving! We ask you to remember the military members, nurses, doctors, and first responders who cannot be with their loved ones this year due to being deployed and working the front lines of this pandemic.

Matt has also served his community as an NYPD Auxiliary Captain for 18 years — he was involved in the disaster relief efforts after Hurricane Sandy. We at Reclass are grateful for his commitment to service. #projectreclass #prisoneducation #techinprision #militaryveterans

“It’s very exciting to see the spark in students when they get the concept, and then realize all the things they can now do with that… Since I would be unlikely to be working with the students in the prisons, I can work with the volunteers who are creating the tech at Reclass.”

Matt recently headlined a #coffeechat, where he shared experiences in his field & provided professional & technical advice. Attendees asked questions about his role in providing context to professionals with varying levels of technical experience.

Matt’s background in operating systems has made him a vital part of designing ToyNet’s learning platform. He works closely with our curriculum developer, Aram, to develop learning content and determine how to measure student progress.

Meet our Reclass Buddy, Matthew Selsky! He is a reliability engineer at a financial technology firm in NY; Matt develops and analyzes applications on an operating systems level, ensuring high-performance, resilience, and accessibility.

Terraform is a powerful Infrastructure as Code tool created by Hashicorp. At Project Reclass we utilize this technology to quickly provision, manage, and destroy various parts of our infrastructure, from security groups to servers. buff.ly/3po0zV4 #projectreclass

This is why we are dedicated to our mission of developing technical vocational skills in incarcerated veterans: to assist with reentry into the society they served. We continue to respect and honor those who have made the unwavering commitment to our Nation. #VeteransDay

Today, fewer than one percent of our Nation serves in the Armed Forces, and fewer than six percent of Americans served at some point in their lives. We here at Project Reclass appreciate the sacrifices it takes to continuously protect our country while preserving freedom.
