Programs and Services
We (the F.E.C.L.C.) pride ourselves in helping families acquire marketable skills. Our programs invest man-hours, dollars and resources into training folks to either go straight to the work-force (re-entry programs), continue on to college, or start their own businesses.
The F.E.C.L.C. operates basically on this three-pronged approach:
a.) Skills Training for DIRECT Work-Force Readiness
- Parenting education and parent leadership
- Job training and career counseling services
- Re-Entry Programs for the formerly incarcerated in the "F.E.C.L.C. Re-entry Program"
- Life-Skills and much more for the students and family members of the homeless and formerly homeless population in the "F.E.C.L.C. Restore Program"
- Community services and service learning opportunities
- Information Technology Training and voluntary work-experience opportunities
- Paid internship opportunities for program participants
b.) College Preparation And Remedial Education
- Adult education
- Remedial education and academic enrichment
- Literacy/reading programs plus expanded‐learning opportunities for youth and families
- Mentoring and other youth development programs
- Community services and service learning opportunities
- Programs for truant, suspended, or expelled students
c.) Entrepreneurship Education, Employment-Internship, and Business Incubation
- Entrepreneurship Education
- Small Business Incubation
We will equip you for, at least, one of these options. With this in mind we have a no-nonsense approach towards the delivery of services, nurturing and mentoring our participants' goals, dreams and ambition, and the careful maintenance of an environment conducive to their growth and development. Our staff are all trained professionals with significant experience in their individual field of expertise, but they are each caring partners first. Each one has vested interest in the growth and development of the F.E.C.L.C. so they each have vested interest in the growth and development of each of our participants.
We are open and honest when we recruit participants...therefore we want participants to be equally open and honest about their plans for their future, background and ability/skill-set/preparation, in our interaction.
