Over the last year, they have had 6 combined hospital admissions making it very difficult for the family to keep up with monthly expenses coupled with extended hospital stay costs like food, housing, travel to their local hospital, and child care.

Year Two. Everyone knows year one after a loved one’s passing is going to be heartbreaking and excruciatingly difficult. And yes, it does get easier. Not easier because you miss them less, but easier because you have learned how to get up and keep going while you miss them.

Work Proudly will help participants identify potential careers, cover the cost of certificate job training, and provide them with tools and equipment for remote work.
