We provide flexible workforce development support designed around your grant, participants and outcomes.
IMPACT helps workforce programs prepare participants and build the employer and community connections that support successful transitions. We deliver career readiness and professional development across Chicago, the Chicago Southland and New York. If you already have training in place, we work alongside your existing team to expand employer and community reach.

LET'S PARTNER
Partnership Levels
IMPACT adds capacity without requiring you to rebuild what already works. We can deliver the training, build the network or do both - helping your team focus on program management while strengthening participant connections and outcomes.
LEVEL 1 - You have the people. You need the curriculum.
LEVEL 2 - You need the curriculum and delivery.
LEVEL 3 - You need the training and the ecosystem around it.
We provide flexible workforce development support designed around your grant, participants and outcomes.
