a Passion for Life-Long Learning”
Rehabilitation
is a healing process and it must involve every aspect of a
person. The Los Angeles Mission’s Urban Training Institute
is designed to facilitate holistic restoration of men and women
whose lives have been devastated by the disintegrative aspects
of homelessness and/or substance abuse. It serves the total
person: spirit, soul and body and addresses all issues from
a relational rehabilitation approach.
Phases
Jump Start: Induction is a one month course, which
allows candidates to get acquainted with UTI and to decide
if they want to make a two-year commitment.
Fresh
Start: The foundational track of the UTI student’s
first year is relational rehabilitation. In addition to rehabilitation,
all students are required to pursue academic studies and
vocational training.
Work
Start: The second year of UTI expedites transition back
into society. The Career Development Department trains and
counsels students throughout their transition. Successful
transition is reconnection in society with employment, living
wages and affordable housing.
