Rebuilding Lives is a self-sufficiency program for individuals who were homemakers and now lack income due to divorce, separation, the death or disability of a spouse or partner, or loss of public assistance.

Through a series of workshops, one-to-one planning and group participation, members gain the knowledge, skills and confidence necessary to become more self-sufficient.

Our objective is to help you prepare for a competitive job market.
