Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $333,948 spent. In 2025, we served 108 adults who were enrolled as participants in the ReWork Richmond accessing the full suite of ReWork supports. These 108 adults represent over 200 unduplicated individuals when we consider the family unites that the 108 adults support. Utilizing our comprehensive approach, we connected 25 to new employment. Education is also a necessary step on many participants' pathway to a thriving career. We helped five participants enroll in various certifications or education courses and associates level programs. A major component of our approach is utilizing our extensive volunteer network to provide participants with meaningful support as they work on employment. Our volunteers act as career coaches, mentors, resume writers, and tutors. Each participant is also paired with a ReWork financial coach who they meet with quarterly to develop a budgeting strategy that works in tandem with their employment plan. Our network includes 50+ volunteers, 30 of which are regularly engaged. We are ReWork Richmond recognize that in order to focus strategically on employment, there needs to be an element of stability around transportation, childcare, and housing. Our staff worked closely with our partners in those fields to connect participants to wrap-around supports that keep them on track towards a thriving career.
