We are proud to partner with Topeka-area high school vocational programs to help build our Habitat homes.

Students build Habitat home components in their school construction shop and also help with building at our Topeka Habitat home sites as part of a construction science curriculum.

​

Local High School Art Classes

Art students help with Habitat property acquisitions by painting tromp l'oeil panels that look like windows for use on derelict properties awaiting demolition or repair.

We offer SER placements for individuals over the age of 55 to gain skills to reenter the workforce. Individuals placed through this program work at the ReStore and construction sites to gain skill and experience  to achieve successful employment in our community.
