Network2Work (N2Work) is a Community Self-Sufficiency Program founded by Piedmont Virginia Community College (PVCC) to connect local low-income families to the necessary support to get and stay in quality jobs.
When we were first approached as a possble technology partner, we were extremely excited about its potential significance and developed the first software phase pro-bono. This enabled PVCC to significantly scale and raise funds for subsequent phases of the software.
Together, TD and PVCC created a mobile-friendly, engaging web application used by local employers, mentors and service providers. The system automates complex eligibility matching criteria and other manual intensive functions — freeing up users to focus on connecting people with jobs and resources.
In just one year after the tool launched:
- 160% more Job Seekers
- 81% Seekers have jobs
- 63% earn more than $25k/year
We were honored to receive Charlottesville Business Innovation Council’s 2018 Social Good Award for our work with local communities.
In 2020, Network2Work was approved for roll-out to the entire state of Virginia. Pilot designs are underway, and we are extremely excited to see this program change the lives of so many more!
