| About | We provide a safe environment for survivors of abuse and poverty. We give these individuals the access to learn and further their education with the help of our tutoring volunteers, along with teaching basic life skills to those who need it, encouraging them along the way and building their self-esteem, so that one day they become independent. In addition to employment preparation programs, we also operate two social enterprises, a food pantry that serves over 3,000 people monthly, and a variety of community services, including crisis intervention, childcare, and a literacy center. These services are critical to the success of our workforce programming, as they provide participants with additional wrap-around services required to support their families as well as real-world experience during the program. |
