These opportunities includes: Food Distribution Center, free GED Training, Computer training, Financial Literacy and Job Placement assistance and a Mentoring Program.

I Care Atlanta’s Food distribution center serves as a link between the stores and those that suffer from hunger and are in need in the community. The free GED training, Computer Training and Job Placement Assistance programs were developed due to their belief that one of the first steps to improving one’s life is to have adequate education. Finally, the newest program component is the Mentoring Program which was designed as a tool to help maintain accountability for the program participants. The Mentors work with the participants to help ensure that they complete their GED training, obtain employment and secure and maintain housing.
