Employment Program Closed
Actions taken by the federal government have resulted in funding reductions, delays, and ongoing uncertainties in the reliability of grants that nonprofits rely on nationwide.
As a result of this new economic reality, as of October 1st, 2025, all employment services historically provided by our Employment team are no longer being offered.
While some employment-related services will continue and become embedded within other departments — for example, presentations from external community partners — HomePlate is reducing both staffing levels and the scope of employment services available.
