New partnerships, new opportunities

At ECS, one of the core values that guides our work is community.  We know that we can accomplish more together and that collaborative and inclusive relationships strengthen our programming and advocacy.

We’re thrilled to announce several new partnerships with community partners in the region:

Urban League of Philadelphia (ULP):  ULP will be joining us at our St. Barnabas Community Resource Center (SBCRC) to help community members and participants purchase homes, avoid foreclosure, and utilize ULP’s onsite housing counseling services.  Stay tuned for more details about this new partnership!

Graduate! Philadelphia:  We’re excited to implement a co-enrollment partnership model with Graduate Philadelphia (GP), a regional leader in adult education and workforce development. GP will support their program participants as they return to college and complete their Associates and Bachelor’s degrees while ECS rounds out the Family Stability, Health and Wellness, and Financial Management pillars.  

Philadelphia Energy Authority (PEA):  This partnership is based on a co-enrollment model where participants from PEA’s Green Retrofit Immersive Training (GRIT) program will enroll in ECS’ MindSet program and participate in services at St. Barnabas Community Resource Center – helping them advance along the Bridge to Prosperity!

We’re grateful for our new partnerships, and we look forward to building more!
