As an employability programme, ATI provides hundreds of fantastic outcomes for its participants: employment, training and job searching.
Better Connect lead on ATI to help and fund our partners and participants to achieve these targets, but also to promote key social goals for participants including improved mental health and financial wellbeing.
Our mission is building a happier and more inclusive Yorkshire.
Action Towards Inclusion is part of the National programme Building Better Opportunities which is funded by the European Social Fund and National Lottery Community Fund.
Action Towards Inclusion supports people throughout York, North Yorkshire and East Riding.
The project is delivered through a partnership of skilled keyworkers and intervention partners who work for organisations in the voluntary and community sector.
Action Towards Inclusion is for adults* who are not working and would love support in getting ready for work or training in the future. It offers support to those who are the furthest from the labour market due to barriers such as mental health issues, debt and lacking qualifications.
We make sure all participants have the best match based on where they live and their specific needs and are ‘linked up’ with a local keyworker.
The keyworker will meet regularly with a participant getting to understand them and their personal background.
Action Towards Inclusion has supported over 2000 participants and got over 1000 of them into jobs, training or job seeking. The project has just been extended to run until 2023.
Support includes:
*We can work with some young people under 18 depending on their schooling situation. Please get in touch with us first to check if this applies.
