Reimagining Education & Career Training At Avivo Through Empath Approach
Avivo has launched a two-year, career training pilot program using the EMPath model a brain-science based approach that designs a roadmap to help low-income people reach economic independence. Focused on long-term goals, EMPath guides each person in health, family life, career, finances, and education.
Last year Avivo helped 4,358 individuals find work or enter careers, and 265 participants to achieve recognized credentials in high-demand industries. Eight out of 10 Avivo participants retained their jobs after six months. According to Jim Verhoye, director of Avivos Institute of Career & Technical Education, Empaths approach will take Avivo participants to an essential level of economic mobility.
Jackie Travis, Avivos Mobility Mentor, hands Deja her certificate of completion. Deja graduated in September from Avivos Business Computer Applications Specialist training program.
We want to make sure our participants are firmly established on paths toward family-sustaining wages and well-being, shares Jim.
This approach to self-sufficiency aligns with Avivos wellness philosophy. The Bridge to Self-Sufficiency® model addresses five essential areas of a persons life, understanding that stress or difficulties in one area can bring down progress in the others. Working this comprehensive approach with Mobility Mentoring® helps individuals make real progress out of poverty and achieve upward economic mobility.
