How do you rebuild after a white-collar criminal conviction?
As the complexities of the white-collar criminal justice system continue to impact individuals across every industry, the White Collar Support Group™ has emerged as an essential resource for those seeking guidance, community, and a path forward.
In a recent feature by the California Business Journal, the spotlight was placed on Jeff Grant, co-founder of Progressive Prison Ministries, Inc., and the White Collar Support Group™ and his mission to provide a dedicated space for guidance and support for individuals navigating life during and after a white-collar criminal conviction.
Since its founding in 2016, the group has held over 450 weekly meetings (on Zoom), serving over 1,200 participants and creating a nationwide network of support. In addition to its weekly confidential meetings, the group offers peer support, a monthly Tuesday Speaker Series, virtual events, and networking opportunities, all designed to help individuals navigate the complexities of their criminal justice journey.
The group’s impact was further solidified in October 2024 when it hosted its first-ever White Collar Conference, a virtual event that tackled the real-life legal, financial, and emotional challenges of this journey. Featuring workshops, panels, and expert discussions, the conference provided invaluable tools for resilience and reintegration.
According to Grant, the White Collar Support Group™ is about more than just coping—it’s about thriving after adversity.
"No one should have to navigate this journey alone. The White Collar Support Group offers a space for support, connection, and the practical guidance needed to move forward."
With an ongoing commitment to advocacy and systemic change, Progressive Prison Ministries and the White Collar Support Group champion the post-conviction relief initiatives of Federal Expungement Reform and the Right to Banking.
