Workforce Development
We’re helping pave the way to good jobs for everyone in our community.
Workforce development strategies are woven into each of KYFC’s program areas. Through our unique Culturally-Responsive Workforce Development Model, we’re supporting our neighbors in overcoming barriers to employment and workforce reentry, building key professional skills, and realizing their dreams.
We are excited to announce the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for conducting a feasibility study for culturally sensitive workforce development programs. Submission is required by email to aallen@kyfc.org by March 15, 5pm.

KYFC offers internships for aspiring and early-career mental health and social work professionals. Our focus is on developing clinical interns into independently-licensed clinicians by providing supervision, training and professional development opportunities, and licensure support.

Classes are announced by availability. We do not have any currently scheduled for the upcoming year.

The newest KYFC initiative is a lot more than a grocery store! It’s also a place where folks in recovery can gain valuable work experience. We’re committed to leading the nonprofit sector (and beyond) in the adoption of recovery-friendly workplace practices.
