Part of the beauty of the INATR Access to Recovery program is in the variety and diversity of the providers. Over the last few years we have committed resources to ATR, but we have seen the number of people we help drop from several a week outside ATR to 1-2 every three months in ATR and the small reimbursement we receive from the occasional ATR client has not offset the time and expense of the ATR overhead and training. We feel we can best serve our community by returning to an independent process that helps people with skills training over a period of weeks, for free, outside the formality of the ATR process.
All citizens are welcome to join our classes, for free, including ATR clients. However these classes will be more extensive covering computer job skills and coaching in hard skill development using computer tools rather than a single short interview. All citizens may also avail themselves on a shared basis of the free use of our computers and Internet connectivity business days (M-F) from 9:00-5:00, with informal coaching also available most weekdays from 9:00 until 1:00. We will not be providing the intense individualized evaluations and training that we have provided under ATR.
We value and appreciate the experiences that we have had together, and hope we can continue to help when appropriate, in our own way.
