Hub for Integration, Reentry & Employment (HIRE)

The Hub for Integration, Reentry & Employment (HIRE) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, founded in 2020 in response to the need for integrated services for people being released back to the Orange County community after incarceration. HIRE works through two main initiatives – Community Outreach and Direct Service/Programming. More specifically, we provide workshops, educational meetings, targeted subcommittees, and trainings geared toward unifying reentry stakeholders and eliminating gaps in services, and also provide direct service for clients through employment readiness/placement, mentoring, and linkages to local resources. As we work towards opening Orange County's first ever reentry workforce training facility, we have opened a our first physical facility in the city of Orange in September 2025. Our centers serve as a central community space to better serve clients and their individualized needs.
