	Since 1974~~, Impact Services Corporation has worked~~ in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia to ~~rekindle hope in~~ the ~~hearts of Philadelphians who have seen factories close~~, ~~jobs disappear~~, and ~~life chances dim~~.~~<br><br>Hope and jobs~~ have ~~long been the core~~ of ~~Impact’s work~~.~~<br><br>Helping the chronically unemployed enter the workforce was a focal point~~ of ~~Impact’s early~~ work with ~~the Ford Foundation’s national demonstration project on supported work.<br><br>Impact’s commitment to helping people find and obtain employment has endured and grown~~. ~~Typically serving over 3~~,~~000 persons annually~~, ~~today’s Employment~~ and ~~Training programs target families receiving Temporary Assistance~~ to ~~Needy Families (TANF), Ex-offenders reentering the community, and Veterans from across the city, as well as residents of~~ the Heart of Kensington community where Impact headquarters. Free GED, ESL, and introductory computer classes provide community access to additional skill-improving opportunities.<br><br>Reclaiming abandoned industrial sites has been a complementary element of Impact’s work in a community that lost 90% of the jobs provided by a once vibrant textile economy. Economic Development efforts have reclaimed three former industrial sites and converted them to new uses including office and classroom space, a childcare center, computer labs, housing, and a range of successful job creation projects. A defunct YWCA has also been reclaimed to become 46 units of veterans’ rental housing. With ~~a staff of 147,~~ Impact ~~itself is a focal point of local job creation.<br><br>Many accomplishments have become springboards for new work.<br><br>Early Veterans Services led to significant work in Supportive Housing~~ for ~~homeless veterans, and~~ a ~~new frontier~~, ~~serving veterans challenged with a Dual Diagnosis of mental illness and substance abuse~~.~~<br><br>Broader Community Development efforts have been bolstered in recent years by comprehensive community planning that addresses not only Housing, but a comprehensive set of strategies to reclaim~~ the ~~Heart of Kensington neighborhood~~.
