LIFT is designed to help remove financial barriers for community members that are looking to establish a career in the trades, which will provide a living wage and benefits so they may take care of their families, while also establishing an attitude of self-reliance. In order to receive support through the program, potential participants must show financial need and be enrolled in an approved Community Foundation trade school.
The desired vocation also needs to be a skill set that is required by local employers who have job positions currently available.
After being accepted, examples of covered expenses within the program are as follows: * Lost wages while in school * Transportation expenses * Text books and training material * Qualified household expenses (food, phone, clothing, toiletries, etc) Additionally, the program will help in ensuring that local employers have a pipeline of skilled employees that will be able to perform needed job functions, something that will also assist in attracting new businesses to the Shenango and Mahoning Valleys.
