How We Help

For people facing the significant barriers of homelessness, poverty, and addiction, the opportunity to secure meaningful work is often out of reach. At Mission Possible, we believe in people's inherent capacity for growth, and the transformative value of work.

Through our in-house social enterprises, community members have access to meaningful work — an opportunity to hone their skills, adapt to new routines, and gain valuable employment experience and references.

These transitional work opportunities propel people on their journey, empowering them economically and setting the stage for them to renewed sense of dignity and purpose.

Employment Readiness Program

Do you want to work but are unsure how to start or what steps to take? We are here to help!

We offer pre-employment training, one-on-one coaching, and support to help you achieve your goals.

The Employment Readiness Program (ERP) is open to people looking to get back into the workforce. We partner with you by providing skills training, on-the-job work experience, and support with other employment-related tasks, such as creating a resume and gaining a reference. The ERP functions as a stepping stone into life-giving employment, and a more sustainable livelihood.
