REACHING INDEPENDENCE
YOUR PART:
When your application and interview are completed, our staff will notify you of your approval or denial. If approved, we will outline what assistance you will receive and how many assistance credit hours will be required. If you accept the assistance award, you will be given a work assignment in our HandUP Store or Recycling Center, you can schedule when to start. Credits must be earned within 30 days of your acceptance. (You may serve these hours yourself or have someone else help serve them and give you credit).
We want this to be a good experience for you, so we will try to match your abilities to the tasks available. Be sure to let us know if you have a particular skill or training. If you need job training, this is a great opportunity for you to learn something marketable. We are not giving you a handout; you are working to change your own future.
After you have completed the required credit hours, we will pay the agreed upon bill directly to the creditor for you. If you are earning additional food, clothing, or store merchandise, you will receive the requested items after you complete the required credit hours.
