Reno Works is a 12-week workforce development partnership program between the City of Reno and Volunteers of America Northern California and Northern Nevada, which was created in 2015 to offer homeless individuals a way to recover by addressing employment, as well as social and emotional issues. The Reno Works team provides employment counseling, referrals, on the job training, financial literacy classes, and a “Getting Ahead” workshop. All participants are given access to a wide-range of community resources.
