Though not a single tax dollar is used to fund MINNCOR, its benefits to the state of Minnesota are numerous:

COMMUNITY SAFETY: MINNCOR’s EMPLOY Program helps offenders capitalize on their work skills and training they learned while incarcerated to find suitable employment after release. Helping offenders acquire valuable trade and job skills reduces recidivism. Studies document that a released offender with stable employment is three times less likely to re-offend. Employment allows the ex-offender to become a productive, taxpaying citizen as opposed to tax-supported.

BUSINESS & LABOR: Participating businesses working with MINNCOR Industries have a resource for affordable, skilled labor to meet their industry's growing needs. MINNCOR can also provide area businesses with a viable resource to manage seasonal or promotional fluctuations. By partnering with MINNCOR, businesses avoid the issues and costs of equipment repair, capital investment, training of equipment operators and equipment idle time.
