Helping Participants Reach Their Goals

We envision a future in which all individuals not only have the basics they need for today but also are able to plan for the future and truly thrive. We help individuals chart a path toward economic mobility and overcome obstacles that stand between them and their goals.

United Ministries’ education and economic mobility services exist to 1.) enhance work qualifications through GED and skills training, and 2.) provide personalized pathways toward achieving goals related to career, finances, housing, and more.

Most Adult Education and Striving to Thrive participants come to United Ministries facing a variety of obstacles, especially issues with financial stability. After obtaining a GED and/or securing steady employment, the hard work of achieving financial stability really begins. Participants continue to meet with and keep in contact with their counselors at United Ministries who assist with building on the employability, financial, and personal effectiveness skills development begun in our programs.

In 2020, 38 individuals passed the GED exam and earned a High School Equivalency Diploma, making it possible for them to enroll in college and find quality employment.

In addition, in our Striving to Thrive Program, 118 individuals completed employability skills classes; 16 individuals completed technical job training; and 227 jobs were attained.
