Partners & Students

There is a place for you in the mission.

Community organizations can help create opportunity. Builders and employers can open doors. Supporters can invest in tools, training, mentoring, and program capacity. Prospective students and participants can take the first step toward a new path.

Community Partners

Help us create the opportunity.

Dutch Development welcomes builders, contractors, employers, agencies, churches, mentors, property owners, community organizations, and supporters who want to help expand reentry and early-intervention pathways through new construction.

PROJECTS

Construction Opportunities

Bring potential build sites, subcontracting opportunities, property development ideas, or projects that could provide meaningful participant exposure.

EMPLOYMENT

Jobs & Apprenticeships

Create next-step opportunities for participants who demonstrate readiness for employment, further training, or an apprenticeship pathway.

RESOURCES

Tools, Materials & Training

Support program needs through equipment, materials, professional instruction, safety resources, mentoring, or other in-kind support.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT

Give to the Mission

Community supporters may contact Dutch Development about financial contributions, sponsorships, and program support for tools, training, work opportunities, mentoring, and infrastructure.

Contribution information: contact Dutch Development for current giving instructions and any applicable tax-status documentation before describing a contribution as tax-deductible.
