First Job Initiative is a series of paid and consistent part time jobs for rough sleeping homeless men & women to gently enter the workforce again. We then increase their working hours by giving them something to do, by providing guidance and instilling self esteem. Small jobs under this project engages them in meaningful activity to build resilience, confidence, dignity and independence whilst providing much needed financial income. By engaging with them in this way it allows us to build a relationship with them and help them engage into with necessary services such as counseling, substance abuse rehabilitation, access to health care, etc. in a more dignified manner.<\/span><\/p>

Community Connect was a 3 month project managed by Think City, supported by Citi Foundation and implemented by Yellow House KL, to connect the homeless with the business community in a mutually beneficial way. The pilot is based on almost two years of <\/span>surveys, data collection, community engagement<\/span><\/a> and other urban rejuvenation projects in that same space. It focuses on bringing together people sleeping rough around Bangkok Bank in downtown KL with local businesses to test if people helping each other can lead to mutual benefits \u2013 for the homeless, an exit strategy to sleeping on the streets, and for the shop owners, a boost to sales.
