Telamon Corporation Information

Headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, Telamon | TRC is a 501(c)(3) private non-profit organization that provides educational services through early childhood and family support programs, workforce and career services, and housing and financial empowerment services to nearly 24,000 individuals a year in eleven states. MISSION: Telamon | TRC disrupts the cycle of poverty by empowering families to overcome barriers to success. HISTORY: Since our beginnings in 1965 as the Migrant Project of the North Carolina Council of Churches, we have grown into a large, stable organization with diverse funding from federal and state governments, as well as substantial partnerships with private foundations. We became a HUD certified National Intermediary in the Housing Counseling sector, and we provide community action services through projects in West Virginia and North Carolina. In Indiana, we are Transition Resources Corporation, or TRC, since another organization held the Telamon name when we incorporated in that state. TODAY: Now with more than 55 years of service, Telamon | TRC provides the opportunity for people who are passionate about the success of their communities to transform the lives of their neighbors. Serving as coaches, leaders, and change agents, our team members help individuals build skills and knowledge to overcome barriers and inspire families to achieve educational success, foundations for a career pathway, financial management skills, and affordable housing of choice. Working every day, one family at a time, we are aligned in our common goal to empower families to disrupt the cycle of generational poverty, provide hope for their futures, and build a legacy of success and well-being for generations that follow. www.telamon.org www.transitionresources.org
