Employment Program

After years of working with those transitioning out of homelessness, we created a self-development program called Residency Mindset that addresses areas of greatest need for our staff and program participants. Residency Mindset is the foundation of both our employment program and our 2022 Residency Mindset Therapy Program. Our Mindset program focuses on education and development in:

Personal Goal-Setting and Strategy
Financial Planning
Technology
Well-being Practices and Self-Discipline
Individualized Job Training

Employees have access to fully-funded tutoring, therapy, and yoga. We also take paid outings to gardens, museums, universities, and places that inspire creativity and a commitment to well-being. Our mission is to provide supportive employment at the absolute highest level by preparing our employees to leave here with greater mobility in their lives and careers. 

Staff Testimonial:

"Residency has changed the trajectory of my life. Working in a supportive environment has helped me become a better problem-solver and an all-around more disciplined person, both at work and at home. I recently earned my GED and have since enrolled in my first college class. I appreciate learning from Tyler and Hughie, and I want to improve because they set an example of how to work hard with compassion and discipline."
