Employment Services
Finding work is key to the financial stability required to afford housing in Hawaii, one of the nation’s most expensive places to live. At IHS, through our Employment Services program, Hele2Work (H2W), we help people who are homeless or at-risk for homelessness to get workforce ready with these services: free business attire, resume writing, interview skills, referral to child care services, transportation help, budgeting courses, and skill development. Job coaches also provide ongoing support for clients as they transition to a new job, increasing job retention and success.
We also have provider partnerships, where providers assist clients in attaining employment and providers reach out for our help with their employees, together we work to remove barriers to success. Our team works to fill the gaps so that each client may secure and maintain employment.
