“I never thought anything like Climb was possible for me. But I finally decided to go through the program and do something for me. I gained so much confidence and started to find myself again after so many years.”

– Cheyenne, Sweetwater Area Climb Graduate

Caring for Others Through Healthcare

The Sweetwater Area’s latest group of moms came to Climb with a passion for helping others. The training included hands-on instruction, clinical hours, and medical certifications to get them ready for employment in medical clinics, home health, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.

With a shortage of CNAs in the community, Climb’s recent Sweetwater Area graduates are filling important gaps in the workforce, with some participants looking to advance into becoming nurses, EMTs, or ultrasound techs.

Resources to Help Families Thrive

It’s hard to succeed at work if you’re constantly stressed about housing, transportation, or how to pay for heat, electricity, and food. Climb’s staff supported this group with connections to critical resources to begin building stability for their families during the program. Once placed in new jobs with higher wages, graduates can continue this path toward long-term stability, which supports children’s educational outcomes, social and emotional health, and employment rates moving into adulthood.
