About Impact

IMPACT prepares teens for employment opportunities and helps professionals in transition turn their strengths into scalable, revenue-generating solutions they can take directly to the marketplace. Based in Illinois, IMPACT provides professional development training through its Workplace Readiness Program, equipping youth and young professionals with the skills needed to thrive in today’s workforce.

Through the Transcend Program, IMPACT also supports seasoned professionals and retirees by offering business consulting services and a starter website to help bring their business ideas to life and successfully enter the marketplace.

Finally, IMPACT brings teens, young professionals, and experienced professionals together each year for an annual Excellence is Required conference focused on mentorship, networking, learning, and inspiration—encouraging participants to grow personally and professionally while working toward becoming their best selves.
