Edgewood/Brookland Family Support Collaborative
E/BFSC was awarded a Community Services Block Grant from the United Planning Organization (UPO) to implement the Readiness Individualized Support and Employment Program (RISE uP). RISE uP is E/BFSC’s Workforce Development program that assists families and individuals to become more self-sufficient by securing employment, increasing educational attainment, and removing social barriers to economic success.
Employment readiness and placement must be comprehensive to be successful, therefore we focus on provision of educational and employment readiness opportunities, increasing job placements and post-employment retention, and providing supportive services to remove barriers to success. In 2017, E/BFSC provided workforce development services to 108 DC residents.
