Application
How to Apply
Our process starts with an in-depth evaluation that assesses work history, technical skills, and living situations and identifies other barriers to employment. After an in-person orientation and a one-on-one meeting with a job coach, clients are matched with an employer and placed in a job within 48-72 hours. Through partnerships with public transportation and Enterprise Rideshare, we provide clients with transportation to and from work. The First Step team also coordinates closely with other nonprofits to connect clients to resources and services such as housing, healthcare, food and clothing needs, and more that they need to develop a stable path out of poverty and homelessness.
