Our latest #ImpactStory highlights the experience of Dometrius, a participant in the Colorado Pay It Forward Fund: After being released from prison in 2020, Dometrius bounced between dead-end jobs. He wanted a career with stability and growth potential, but he was having trouble getting his foot in the door.  The Master's Apprentice Program gave him the opportunity he needed. A zero-interest living expense loan, offered through the Colorado Pay It Forward Fund, helped him remain financially stable during the six-week pre-apprenticeship training. “Training with The Master’s Apprentice took up almost all of my time Monday through Friday. The loan helped with my finances, so I was able to focus on learning. I don’t know where I would be without it.” Read Dometrius's story: https://lnkd.in/eZcf9i4u #economicmobility #apprenticeships #outcomes
