What’s Happening With RISE?

Resources to Initiate Successful Employment (RISE) is an employment and training pilot aimed at moving people who receive SNAP/Basic Food benefits to Self Sufficiency. RISE utilizes three components that can assist clients in the process of self-sufficiency, Comprehensive Case Management (CCM), Work Based Learning (WBL), and Strategies for Success (SFS) classes.

How can RISE help?

Resources to Initiate Successful Employment (RISE) can assist with:

• Identifying career interests to plan for both short and long term employment and education goals
• Providing one-on-one assistance with writing an effective cover letter and resume
• Assisting with effective job search and interviewing techniques
