Over a six-year period, we tracked 782 FPU participants, 573 of whom completed the program—that's a 73% completion rate. Even more impressive: Of those who enrolled in the course, only two have been back in court for a repeat offense.
That means the recidivism rate for the FPU participants in this study was only one quarter of one percent (0.25%). One study conducted in the 1990s found the national average recidivism rate of adult offenders to be 67.5% (Department of Justice). Can you see the positive influence of personal financial training?
Taught by personal finance expert Dave Ramsey, Financial Peace University is a 13-week program that provides offenders with the tools and skills they need to manage their money for long-term success. This program, which is one of the most sought-after courses in many institutions, prepares offenders for life back home. One U.S. correctional facility keeps a list of more than 300 inmates anxiously waiting to begin the class! FPU is a turn-key solution that requires no staff training.
