This study contained the factors surrounding African- American ex-offenders who became entrepreneurs as they transitioned from life in the prison to life in society. According to Clark and Potter-Blair (2011) and Patzelt, Williams, and Shepherd (2014), lowering the recidivism rates and enabling ex-offenders to start their businesses is a favored approach nationally. Entrepreneurship supplies work for ex-offenders, allowing individuals an income that is enough for supporting a family (Clark & Potter, 2011; Mohammad & Hanane, 2012). If society does not shift its thinking and action toward these pursuits, then returning citizens cannot contribute as members of society (Whittington, Galpin, & Watters, (2011). Also, transitioning into society from prison is a process of adjustment. Exploring opportunities as well as challenges encountered on the path to entrepreneurship may provide new knowledge for criminal justice administrators, policy makers, and stakeholders associated with the transition process (Zakaras, 2012). This study propels the significance of the black entrepreneur to the academic community, to society, and to leadership. Four internal themes consisted of results from the perspective of African American ex-offenders who successfully reintegrated back into society and became entrepreneurs: (a) key motivational factors, (b) personal growth and achievements, (c) benefits of giving back to the community, and (d) personal challenges. Three external themes consisted of suggestions for improving or implementing prison programs and entrepreneurship programs while working with the correctional system: (a) the need for change, (b) identifying challenges, and (c) issues in prison, and critical factors for improving entrepreneurship training.
