Current Narrative:
The State SCSEP office has identified the need for additional community service training needs in rural Colorado and for individuals throughout the State that have a felony background. Over the next four years, the State will focus on community service opportunities within the targeted in-demand industries, such as healthcare, IT, manufacturing and construction. The State will partner with community colleges, businesses, and local government to develop a plan of action that will meet the community service training needs of the participants as well as the needs of the business community, thus creating a win-win approach for everyone.
The community service agencies that may meet the needs of the participants include nonprofit thrift stores, correctional industries, Habitat for Humanity, government offices, colleges, hospitals, home health agencies and nonprofit clinics. The goal of the State SCSEP office is to increase the number of host agencies listed above by 10% over the next four years and increase the placement of those hard to serve participants by 10%.
