Employing Communities, Restoring Lives.

About us

Employing Communities. Restoring Lives. Our Mission: Cincinnati Works will partner with all willing and capable people living in poverty to assist them in advancing to economic self-sufficiency through employment. Our Vision: We will lead the effort to eliminate poverty in our community. Cincinnati Works serves two clients: those individuals in the community who are currently unemployed or underemployed and Employers who have entry level positions. The short-term goal for the unemployed is to help them stabilize in a job that pays a living wage with health benefits. The long-term goal for the underemployed is for them to earn 200% of the federal poverty rate and move to economic self-sufficiency. Economically self-sufficient people become taxpayers and productive citizens who no longer require public assistance. As a primarily privately-funded organization, we are able to serve any willing and capable job seekers who are eligible for our program. We are able to serve those who would otherwise be ineligible for other programs (e.g. men, women without dependent children and women without children). Our clients become Members of the Cincinnati Works program and receive lifetime Membership for as long as they are employed or actively seeking work. There is no cost to become an Employer or Member and our services are free for both Employers & Members. Proud to be a United Way Agency Partner.

Are you maximizing all the perks your employer offers? Remember, employment benefits can make up to 40% of your total compensation. Great benefits not only boost job satisfaction but can also help you save (or earn) more money in the long run! Reach out to your Financial Coach to review your benefits package and get answers to any questions you have about your benefits!
