PIC

Our 18-member staff works with hundreds of families and individuals to help them become economically self sufficient. We do this through job training, coordination of support services and job placement. Our clients are primarily referred to us by local agencies providing public assistance to people in need.

We work with families with children, refugees, low-income seniors and adults facing multiple challenges to employment such as homelessness, debt, addiction and mental illness. Our newest program, the Veteran Women Program, is open to all women veterans and helps with connections to services, training and jobs.

PIC is a 501 (C) (3) organization, a non-profit that is funded primarily by local, state and federal government.
