Mission: The cost of poverty in our nation is sky-rocketing. The lifetime cost to society of an individual stuck in the poverty cycle is between $241,000 to $1.3 million. A circumstance that is frequently more about a state of mind rather than a state of the economy. It is imperative that society develops and strengthens programs that support individuals in discovering their own ability to succeed. We work to do this by creating supportive transitional employment programs that offer onsite training as a part of the workday. We have classes in computer literacy, business skills, GED, work ethics. We also work with the individuals to strengthen their own emotional competency.
