Property Maintenance and Landscaping
Skill Building + Community + Education = Employment
Property Maintenance and Landscaping Training was launched in 2007 to help unemployed adults gain skills and vital certifications in the maintenance and carpentry industries.
All students receive contextualized educational supports in both literacy and math and work with Amos House's Financial Opportunity Center staff to address financial education and goals.
During their training, students are placed in area industry internships to receive additional hands-on experience. Amos House provides support throughout the program to ensure that the students have what they need to graduate.

"I've been working on crews doing odd jobs for years, but without formal training and OSHA certifications, I could never get anything but under the table work. Since graduating from this program, I've been employed as a part of a school maintenance crew and have steady income and benefits." – Paul, graduate
