Abstrakt:	Rural communities represent unique challenges for the reentering ex-offenders. In addition to having access to fewer resources, employment, and limited tax base, rural communities have a unique culture, values, and beliefs that may further increase barriers to employment for ex-offenders. The purpose of this article is to examine characteristics of rural communities that serve as barriers to employment for ex-offenders, to contrast rural and urban issues, and to examine employers' hiring practices in rural communities. Implications for rehabilitation counselors are provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
