Pending funding, RCLI will offer a Stepping Stones to Success (SSTS) program. SSTS is a 12-week program designed to provide youth between the ages of 17 and 29 with opportunities for personal growth and assistance in overcoming educational and employment barriers. The program focuses on life skills and employability skills.
Participants take business and college tours, and professionals from various fields are invited to speak to the groups. Upon completion of the program, participants have either found employment, made a decision to continue to seek employment opportunities, return to school to further their education, or register for a training program.
