What is the SkillUP Program?

At SCMCAA, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to build a successful career. That’s why the SkillUP program provides free assistance to SNAP (Food Stamp) recipients through career coaching, job training, and employer connections.

Your SCMCAA SkillUP Job Coach will create a personalized plan to help you reach your goals, gain valuable skills, and find meaningful employment. SCMCAA’s SkillUP program can also help you:

• Pay for short-term training and certifications
• Create or update your resume
• Decide on your goals and a career pathway
• Get real work experience
• Connect you with employers
• Connect with resources such as childcare and housing assistance
• Buy clothing, books, supplies, or tools required for a training or a job
• Pay for minor car repairs to help you get to training or work
