Single Parent Opportunity for Knowledge & Empowerment

The Single Parent Opportunity for Knowledge & Empowerment (SPOKE) program is designed to offer an opportunity for successful employment to single parents with visual impairments and blindness with significant barriers to employment. These barriers may be educational, job training, lack of childcare, work readiness skills or soft skills, appropriate clothing, interviewing skills, transportation, communication, and a lack of employment direction or choices. This program is designed to assist the client with career, educational, and training goals. It will empower the client with the same tools and opportunity to be competitive when searching for employment as others without such barriers.
