The program provides meaningful job opportunities, allowing participants to earn an income, build stability, and even qualify for housing. Workers are trained, supervised, and paid to perform various services for local businesses and organizations, such as demolition, commercial cleaning, painting, street clean-up, and graffiti abatement in East Central and Downtown Spokane. Dignified Workday is an initiative that recognizes that employment is necessary for individuals to obtain stable housing, and not only supports individuals in need but also benefits the community as a whole.

SNAP’s CEO, Julie Honekamp, will share the results ofthe agency’s Community Needs Assessment. This is a federal requirement for Community Action Agencies to ensure they are continually assessing and meeting the community’s growing needs. Community Action Agencies, such as SNAP, are required to assess the needs of our low-income community every two years and provide a plan to address the needs that are identified. Julie will share how these Community Needs Assessments have made Spokane a better place to live, both for our neighbors in need and for our entire community.

Entrepreneurs Against Poverty (EntrAPov) connects sponsor-donors to small entrepreneurs in areas where the $US dollar goes a long way toward starting a business that lifts families out of poverty…permanently. We do this through a “pitch show” called Shark Pond. Entrepreneurs are prepared for the show by approved educational partners in Africa. Budding entrepreneurs then compete for startup funds to launch their businesses.
