Get Out and Work

A Job Opportunity.
A Ride to Get There.

Employment support starts when you apply. Lantern’s Get Out and Work connects residents with construction-industry opportunities and $5-each-way transportation to approved employment locations.

Program update: This program is now presented as Get Out and Work. See the current program overview, confirmed fares and worksite approval requirement.

Work and transportation, together.

A job can bring income, routine, and a practical next step. But an opportunity only helps if you can get there. That’s why Lantern created the Get Out and Work: help connecting with work, alongside affordable transportation to the job.

The conversation starts when you apply.

If you’re looking for work, we begin discussing employment opportunities during the application process. Tell us about your experience, interests, and schedule so we can help you explore a fit.

Already employed? Let us know. You do not need a new job to start that conversation; we can discuss the support and transportation you need around your existing work.

Connections in the construction industry.

Lantern helps connect residents with opportunities in construction and the wider construction industry. We work with you on the practical steps toward employment, rather than leaving you to navigate the job search alone.

Employers make hiring decisions. Openings, job requirements, and start dates vary, so talk with our team about current opportunities.

GETTING TO WORK

$5 each way · $10 round trip

The program offers transportation for $5 each way, or $10 round trip, to and from an approved employment location. Confirm your worksite, shift and pickup arrangements with our team before making plans.

More than a place to stay.

Lantern brings housing, employment support, and transportation into the same conversation. The goal is practical: help you pursue work and make a plan to get there.

If employment or transportation is standing between you and your next step, tell us when you apply.
