    Career MAP Program Overview


    The District of Columbia (District) Career Mobility Action Plan (Career MAP) is a groundbreaking program designed to remove barriers that families confront as they pursue employment that can sustain their families.

    The program will provide resources directly to families who have experienced homelessness, are committed to pursuing a career, and are at risk of losing cash, food, health care, childcare, and housing benefits more quickly than their income can cover these lost resources (also known as 'benefits cliffs').

    Career MAP takes a holistic, two-generational approach to supporting families.

    As Ascend at the Aspen Institute models, a two-generational approach includes the foundational components of family well-being: career pathways, child development, financial assets, health and wellbeing, and social capital.

    Most importantly, Career MAP recognizes families as drivers of their own success and the program will tailor service connections to meet the needs of individual participants.
