Megan Kline - Co-Founder
Megan Kline – Short Synopsis Bio
Megan Kline is a co-founder of Convicted COMEBACK, a skilled tradeswoman, and a powerful advocate for workforce reentry. After overcoming a childhood marked by instability, street life, addiction, and multiple incarcerations, Megan transformed her life through vocational training in maintenance and the trades while incarcerated.
Upon release, she authored a letter of accountability and earned her first job in an industry that had never before hired someone with a felony conviction. Through consistent hard work, reliability, and high performance, she built a stable career in male-dominated trades, proving that a criminal record does not define a person’s potential.
Megan’s quiet, structural leadership provided the financial foundation and stability that enabled her partner Kristin to fully build Convicted COMEBACK. She embodies the organization’s mission: that skills, personal responsibility, and second-chance employment can create lasting independence, credibility, and successful reentry—especially for justice-impacted women.
Megan’s story is living proof that sustained effort and vocational opportunity can turn survival into strength.
