We are here to support our participants on their path to employment. We offer individualized job placement and support to our participants as they navigate the employment process. We work with individuals who are recently released from incarceration, in a half-way house, and those who will soon be released.

Project: Elevate
Project: Elevate is a collaborative endeavor between the City and County of Denver (The City) and The Empowerment Program, Inc. The collaboration represents an innovative, evidence-based program model that is trauma informed and gender responsive for women with increasingly complex needs. The program enables Denver women with criminal justice involvement to return and thrive in their home community.
Project: Elevate serves cisgender women, transgender women, and other participants assigned female at birth. What was once known as Tooley Hall has now been revolutionized into a model that is one of a kind. Project: Elevate is managed through a collaborative partnership between The Empowerment Program and the County of Denver. The program recognizes that each participant has unique needs and experiences. Service offerings use a gender responsive and trauma informed approach to all aspects of the program. Project: Elevate accepts participants who are directly sentenced through the courts (Diversion/Community Corrections) or are transitioning from prison (DOC-Transition & Condition of Parole).
