Breaking Barriers to Employment (BBTE)

Helping Homeless Individuals Receive Job Training and Support

Awarded in April 2020, the BBTE grant helped provide one dedicated case manager responsible for helping our guests find jobs in our community. The grant not only helped enhance the existing culinary job training program offered at Hospitality House, but birthed two new job training programs in 2021: computer literacy and and facilities maintenance. The program also leverages our preexisting Adult Reentry Grant Program, helping homeless individuals with prior offenses receive job training, employment assistance and housing support.
