We work in collaboration with other nonprofit organizations at their locations. The collaborating board, participants, and staff will choose the forums that they feel their clients will benefit from. Then the collaborating agency's staff will work with All Purpose Lifeskills to create a schedule for their clients. All Purpose Lifeskills takes care of the rest. All Purpose Lifeskills will work with agencies whose target populations are domestic violence survivors, foster youth, youth at risk, low income, and the homeless.
