Momentum
The basis of empowering people is believing in their potential.
Urban Alliance intentionally works to remove barriers and sees the promise within everyone – even those who face significant barriers to employment such as lack of education, poor employee habits, and criminal records.
Six-week program
This six-week community-based economic development program is designed for unemployed and underemployed individuals. We connect these individuals to sustainable employment opportunities through pre-employment training, life skills training, coaching, and networking.
Learn how to be an employee
Momentum goes beyond typical workforce development to address the root causes of early job loss by building capacity and resiliency within the students through essential and life-skills classes. The program also emphasizes pre-employment education, volunteer work experience, mentoring, job placement, and job evaluation with incentives.
Stories of Success
“Momentum added a positive outlook to my life. I loved waking up, getting ready, and starting my day with a group prayer. The bond my group and the UA staff created was overwhelmingly inspiring. The genuine encouragement we gave each other helped us reach for a better future for ourselves. I love how they taught us our value.”
