UGM Dallas partners with local businesses, non-profit organizations, business leaders, volunteers, and churches to provide those participating in our discipleship programs with a skill set that will help them find employment. In addition to learning skills in automotive repair, construction, and hospitality trades at the Sovereign Center for Homeless Advancement, participants are also taught basic skills that will enable them to succeed. They learn about accountability, the importance of timeliness in completing their work and responsibilities. Training in these areas produce self-confidence and self-worth.

UGM Dallas Learning Centers, located at our two main shelters, were created to meet our homeless residents where they are, so that we can help them set and attain their goals.
In the 21st century, a lack of computer skills severely limits a persons’ ability to qualify for most jobs. All of our shelters have on-site learning centers where clients can learn computer skills, basic math and reading, and the use of an online job bank. They also receive assistance completing job applications. Graduation from the Learning Center is mandatory for disciples.
Ken, a 47-year-old Discipleship Program graduate, said: “When I came to UGM, I couldn’t read. Now I’m motivated to know the Bible better so I can succeed in living the Christian life.”
