A joint press conference by Volunteers of America Northern Nevada, the City of Reno, and Washoe County will take place tomorrow at 1 p.m. outside the Men’s Shelter on the Community Assistance Center campus announcing its new Reno Works program.

Reno Works is a joint employment program by VOA and the City of Reno that will provide 20 residents of the homeless shelters with nine-week sessions to address temporary employment including safety and work training, skills training, long-term employment support, wrap-around case management, and mentoring. The program was approved by Reno City Council on August 26.
