What does it really take to land a job? More than a résumé. Learn how Navigating Upwards removes invisible barriers to employment.
Applying for a job seems simple — unless you don’t have clean clothes, a safe place to sleep, or an address to put on your application.
Imagine walking into a job interview unshowered, carrying everything you own in a backpack. Or filling out an online application that asks for an address — and realizing you don’t have one.
Many forsaken youth age out of care into homelessness. That makes job hunting nearly impossible.
At Navigating Upwards, we provide temporary housing, hygiene supplies, donated professional clothing, and a virtual address that participants can confidently use on job applications.
Because dignity matters. And when you remove the barriers, potential shines through.
