Bridging people to the work they're ready for.
Job readiness training, work-based learning, and long-term follow-along support for youth with disabilities, returning citizens, individuals in recovery, and others facing employment barriers.
“Everyone is employable, given the right support.”
Our Employment First PrincipleA track record built cohort by cohort.
Two phases, one goal: real, sustained employment.
Every participant moves through structured job readiness training and hands-on work-based learning, then stays connected through follow-along support long after placement.
Job Readiness
Four weeks of structured Pre-ETS training covering job exploration, workplace readiness, and self-advocacy.
Work-Based Learning
Real workplace experience paired with continued coaching on self-advocacy and on-the-job skills.
Long-Term Follow-Along
Ongoing check-ins after placement so gains in employment translate into gains that last.
Your support funds a program that already works.
Every gift funds a program that gets better every cohort, refined by real experience instead of a fixed curriculum. See how on the Impact page.
