What to Expect
For Participants
You may be ready for Bridging Forward if you are:
Two Models: Prosperity Coach and Circles Leader. Which Fits Best For You?
The Prosperity Coach Model is best for individuals:
- who are recently out of crisis
- need one-on-one support to resolve ongoing issues.
Bridging Forward participants in this model work with a trained Prosperity Coach to understand everything needed to help build your stability. Together you will develop a plan, using a special Pathway Binder, and track your progress and any work you are doing with other agencies or programs. Find out more in the information below or contacting a Prosperity Coach at 402-461-8418.
The Circles Leader Model is best for individuals who are:
- financially stable yet still within 185% of the federal poverty line
- able to pay your usual bills yet you may be one or two challenges away from real crisis.
Bridging Forward participants in this model start with a three month session of weekly meetings with 10-20 other participants where we learn together and develop strong budgets, self-advocacy skills and career plans, afterwhich participants are matched with volunteer Allies who continue working alongside you to help overcome barriers and enter higher-wage employment. 90-minute Orientations are hosted regularly to learn more about this model and see if it is a good fit. Contact 402-461-8417 to attend!
