WORKFORCE ADVOCACY
Financial stress doesn't stay home when people go to work. United Way FPC's Workforce Advocacy program connects employees in Floyd, Polk & Chattooga Counties with a trained Advocate who works one-on-one to build a personalized stability plan — and stays with them through the process.
​
From unexpected expenses to housing and transportation challenges, Advocates help employees navigate the barriers that threaten their ability to stay on the job. The result: stronger workforce continuity for employers and greater financial stability for the people who power our regional economy.
