Living in a new country can be intimidating and present unique challenges...especially when trying to get settled and find employment.
Our RISE program supports new Americans throughout our community through one-on-one career coaching. Together, job-seekers receive connections to employers and paid training providers, assistance transferring credentials, support navigating and understanding the job application process, along with guidance to determine the best career path for them. 

RISE is currently offered across the city, with two focus areas in Northview Heights and South Hills. 

To find out if RISE is right for you, get started with a career coaching session by visiting our sign-up page now! 

Northview Heights
