Program areas at Ready to Work Aurora

Bridge House's Ready to Work program is a "work-first" solution to address homelessness. Ready to Work applies a business approach toward solving increasingly difficult and expensive social problems - Homelessness, joblessness, and criminal recidivism. Founded on the belief that when given the opportunity individuals experiencing homelessness can and are willing to work, Ready to Work creates paid transitional work opportunities as the core element of a comprehensive program providing a pathway to independence for men and women experiencing homelessness. Ready to Work trainees participate in three elements of the program including paid work in a ready to work social enterprise; housing in a supportive, communal setting called Ready to Work House; and participating in case management for one year before graduating to mainstream employment and independent housing. Immediately upon acceptance into Ready to Work participants are contributing members of the community. Ready to Work House residents go to work every day, pay taxes, pay room and board, and call Ready to Work House home for one year. Currently, the program offers employment and housing to 50 men and women.
