Lifeworks is specifically designed for educationally and economically disadvantaged adults who share many of the following characteristics: interrupted schooling, poor work history, relational issues, lack of marketable vocational skills, poor motivation, low self esteem, and generational poverty.
Individuals also possess many strengths of which they may be unaware, including hopes that lie dormant but which have enormous motivational value, and gifts/abilities that have marketable value. Participants in Lifeworks are admitted to the program following an application/interview process.
Students may include:
- Ex-offenders
- Unemployed Veterans
- Refugees/Documented Immigrants
- Transitional Shelter Residents
- Residents of public housing
