Income

In the area of INCOME, we are increasing financial stability through partners, programs and initiatives that:

  • Ensure residents have more job opportunities that provide adequate wages.
  • Expand training and employment opportunities for experienced workers whose skills are no longer in demand.
  • Increase entry level employment opportunities for the under-employed and unemployable youth and adults.

Partners and initiatives helping to achieve our income goals include:

  • Literacy Volunteers of Waterbury
    • Adult Literacy
  • Nonprofit Assistance Initiative
