Shawna Austin would have to work at least two minimum-wage jobs, with little time for her 7-year-old daughter, to match what she’s earning now at her home-based job.

Austin is a grateful graduate of the new SoloWorks program, which trained her, encouraged her, helped her find a job and then made sure she succeeded at it.
