How Our Program Helps You Get on Your Feet

Traverse Place is a stepping stone to your future. When you or a loved one comes into our 21-month program, you are required to work, get your degree, and save money from every paycheck. Once you graduate from the program, you will receive the money you saved. You can use your earnings to get an apartment that will eventually help you get on your feet.

• Employment is part of the program
• Save 60% of your income for graduation
• Initial probationary period leads to lasting skills

Education can be expensive, but if you put forth the earnest effort, we will help you succeed. Our program is here to help provide you with the means to earn your diploma so you can begin your journey to a successful career.

Earn What You Need for Responsible Living

You will enter Traverse Place on a probationary period, but you'll leave with more than just skills and success. With us, you will gain “levels” as you develop. Each time you “level up,” you will get to choose, from a list of items, what you want for your living space when you graduate. You deserve to be comfortable and feel satisfied.

We believe in your potential and are here to help you achieve it. Together, we'll build the foundation for your independence and success.
