WHAT IS THE HANDS ON WORK PROGRAM

The Hands-On Work Program at Community Clothing Assistance (CCA) serves as a dynamic platform, offering comprehensive training to program participants, particularly the youth, equipping them with valuable job skills. CCA creates a flexible training plan that is directly informed by participant's goals, strengths, talents, and learning needs. The training environment is designed to be supportive and relaxed, culminating in participants earning a certificate and a valuable reference—key assets in overcoming employment barriers.
