Job Training Program
Our Job Training Program transitionally employs those facing homelessness for 16-weeks to facilitate their reintroduction to the workforce, offer therapeutic programs for life skills, and coordinate long term housing and full time employment.
Our Farm Manager will determine what to plant, and will guide trainees in organic farming on the site.
Our Program Director will hire trainees, teach them life and job skills, and facilitate relationship building within their cohort.
Our Advocate will work individually with each trainee to overcome barriers to full-time employment and stable housing.
