What We Do
Skills Training
Here To Listen
The Papitto Opportunity Connection supports job-skills programs that serve Rhode Islands communities most in need and boost the employability and earnings of individuals in the Ocean State.
To meet the demands of today’s workforce these programs provide the post-secondary credentials, credits and certificates job seekers need for high-paying jobs in healthcare, IT, the building trades and more.
Justice-involved members of the community who are seeking a pathway to success are often denied access to good paying jobs because they have previously made mistakes. POC is working to change that narrative by supporting innovative and unique programs that provide skills training and offer pathways for people to build healthier lives for themselves and their families.
Justice Assistance
