View Award Description

Louisiana Refugees: Bridge to Employment program provides employment related education, training, and placement services to help ORR-eligible populations across the state reach self-sufficiency. - Louisiana Refugees Bridge to Employment Program seeks to ensure access to population-specific employment services for Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) eligible individuals across the state with the primary goal of assisting them in achieving self-sufficiency. The Louisiana Office for Refugees and parent agency Catholic Charities Baton Rouge, in partnership with subrecipients Catholic Charities New Orleans and Catholic Charities Acadiana, will provide employment services for newly arrived ORR-eligible populations, career laddering to support long-term integration, English classes focused on vocational language skills and communicating in the workplace, as well as case management services to enable clients to overcome barriers to employment and self-sufficiency. In the short term, it is expected that clients will gain more understanding of the US employment system, increase proficiency in the English language, obtain their first job, and independently navigate US systems. This project will provide continuity of services that allow for swift and successful community integration.
