Through trainings, stipends, and network support, Project E.A.T. (Earn, Assist, and Train) will help women and families who have experienced or who are at risk for domestic violence find support.
The program offers a “60 Days to a Career Pathway” course, which enrolls women in a 60-day program where they will earn a stipend for completing 25 hours of transitional employment in a gourmet popcorn factory, participate in a Domestic Violence safety workshop, and train in a short-term workforce certificate from a community college.
Project E.A.T. will also offer a program, the “60 Minute Internship,” to at-risk high school youth. This allows participants to earn internship experience and participate in a Safe Dates workshop.
