Our Programs
Our programs prepare participants to apply technical knowledge and skills learned in coursework with our valued partners. No matter where individuals are currently in life, our aim is to help them develop a deeper sense of who they are and support them to be a contributing member of society.
To ensure program sucess, sustainability, and completion outcomes, each participant is assigned a Student Advocate who serves as direct, immediate resource to answer questions and address concerns. The Nehemiah Project aims to lead people to a better life by providing access to educational and vocational training, affordable housing, financial literacy, health services, and employment in a safe sustainable environment.
