Ready to Work: Assistance for Low-Income Parents

Ready to Work (RTW) is a partnership between the Kentucky Community and Technical College System and the KY Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Department for Community Based Services.

RTW is designed to promote the success of low-income parents who attend community and technical colleges in Kentucky.  It can help with :

• Counseling, advising and mentoring
• Referrals to community resources
• Job references and referrals
• Job readiness, life skills, and academic success seminars
• Work study opportunities both on and off campus

Contact your college RTW Coordinator to determine if you are eligible for RTW services.

Similar services, inclucing work study opportunities, are available for low-income parents interested in earning their GED or preparing for college level courses through KY Adult Education Programs.
