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 county, with regular in-person office hours in Northview Heights and South Hills. We are able to serve anyone with work authorization. To find out if RISE is right for you, get started by emailing one of our RISE career coaches, Hilda or Kristen, today. |
