HAPCAP helps people develop and use their skills for a successful career
Employment Programs
HAPCAP helps individuals ages 14 to 24 in Southeast Ohio achieve their education and work goals. We provide job support services like work experience and training opportunities to prepare them for jobs. Participants receive assistance with resumes, job searches, and interview preparation. We also offer support with transportation and clothing for work.
Digital Navigator
Using technology is essential for our everyday lives. HAPCAP offers training to bridge the gap in digital literacy. The Digital Navigator assists residents in Athens, Hocking, and Perry Counties. We help with tasks like setting up devices, navigating web programs, managing files, and using online school reporting systems.
Scholarships
Many individuals in our region miss out on college because they can’t afford it. At HAPCAP, we know that education empowers students to reach their goals. That’s why in 1999, we established the David V. Stivison Scholarship Fund to offer financial aid to high school seniors facing poverty in Hocking, Athens, and Perry counties. The scholarship supports their pursuit of higher education and expanded career opportunities.
Broadband Careers
The Internet and cell phones are essential for jobs, education, and other life tasks. Access to the web can be an issue in rural areas where broadband services are often limited. Even when internet access is available, it can be too expensive for those struggling to pay the bills. HAPCAP connects individuals living with a lower income to programs that help pay for Internet and cell phone services.
