On October 10, 2023, Cierra Cobb from Emancipate NC was invited to speak at the Hospitality HR Summit hosted by Penn State University. During her speech, Cierra emphasized the significance of hiring individuals who have been impacted by the justice system. Her podcast content was well-received by the Penn State students who attended the summit, and they had several questions related to it. These students are aspiring HR managers and plan to create a podcast episode that highlights the importance of hiring justice-impacted people.
