Participants of LA:RISE were co-enrolled in programs funded by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act and received a minimum of 300 hours of subsidized, transitional employment at a social enterprise or workforce development system partner. These programs also provided on-the-job training, specialized training, or both. Other provided services varied by placement and included soft-skills training, work-readiness training and assessments, supportive services, case management, education, and permanent job search and placement services.

Participants in the STEP-UP Achieve Program were placed in paid internships at local businesses, nonprofit agencies, and public organizations. Participants also received training on career readiness, personal finance, and skill development in topics such as Excel and Outlook. Individuals had the opportunity to earn professional credentials in information technology and Excel following their training. Youth with an interest in a particular field, such as health care or financial services, could participate in specialized enrichment activities.

Breaking Barriers followed the IPS model by assigning employment specialists to help participants set career goals and search for a job. Employment specialists maintained relationships with local employers, which they used to connect participants to potential job opportunities. After participants found employment, specialists provided as-needed, customized support (such as counseling or transportation assistance). This follow-along support did not have a time limit. Participants were involved in the program for an average of 10 months.
