Hopeworks, a Camden-based nonprofit that offers a variety of training programs that prepare young people to earn a livable wage in the workforce, has received a $660,000 grant to support students with scholarships as they learn to be EMTs and medical assistants.
The Haines Family Foundation, of Egg Harbor City, recently awarded the grant for medical scholarships and stipends during the training period, according to Hopeworks. The grant will make it possible to place about 68 young adults in living-wage jobs with regional healthcare networks that need EMT-certified professionals and medical assistants, the Hopeworks announcement said.
“This grant will provide young adults with the opportunity to break through the stigmas and prove their capability for real, meaningful work,” said Hopeworks CEO Dan Rhoton. “We are thrilled to use this funding to create pathways for these talented individuals to engage with some of the region’s largest health systems.”
