I would have never thought the best decision I ever made was to give I-CAN a chance. I’m able to do things I never thought I’d be able to do.”

I-CAN Program Details

The I-CAN program begins with two weeks of classroom training, learning employability skills such as creating a resume, preparing job applications, and learning workplace soft skills. Upon successful completion, participants are then placed at a Palmetto Goodwill worksite to gain full-time on-the-job experience with additional coaching and support. 

Participants are invited to attend peer support classes twice a week to strengthen their support network and to continue learning strategies for life and career success.

After graduation, job placement assistance and follow-up services are provided, empowering graduates to make informed decisions for long-term, competitive employment.
