Guidelines for Referring a Client to the Work Proudly Program
The Work Proudly Program is designed to help individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) and their caregivers build sustainable careers that fit their unique needs. While the program offers coaching, technology, resources and training assistance, it does not guarantee employment. Successful participants gain career readiness skills, job search confidence, and information about flexible career opportunities.
To ensure a strong fit, please consider the following before referring a client:
Ideal Candidates for the Program:
- Demonstrate initiative and a desire to learn.
- Can work independently in a self-paced program.
- Show willingness to follow steps, complete assignments, and engage with program resources.
- Are able to respond to emails, attend meetings, and maintain professional communication.
- If awarded funded certificate training or education, commit to completing the program.
Acceptance Process:
- Step 1: Hospital professional submits a referral form on behalf of the client.
- Step 2: Client completes a written application.
- Step 3: Selected applicants may be invited to a Zoom interview with our team.
We appreciate your thoughtful referrals and your support in helping us identify individuals who will benefit most from this opportunity.
The Work Proudly Program is a competitive opportunity designed to support individuals with cystic fibrosis and caregivers in their career journey. Due to limited availability, not all applicants will be accepted. Each application is carefully reviewed to ensure the program is the right fit for both the participant and our resources.

Guidelines
This section must be completed by a social worker, nurse, or doctor. All information will be verified by the patient. We do this as a requirement of our 501c3 nonprofit status.
Eligibility for our Extended Hospital Stay Fund Program is as follows:
- Any child or adult diagnosed with cystic fibrosis who has experienced a 14 consecutive day hospital stay within the last calendar year. *Due to COVID, we have expanded this to include a home tune up that includes at least 14 consecutive days on IV medication or if a patient is discharged from the hospital to complete a 14 day IV medication round at home.
- At this time, we are only able to assist patients with rent or mortgage payments due to a decline in donations and an increase in need in our community.
- In order to review the request for financial assistance, a hospital professional (Doctor, Nurse or Social Worker) must complete and submit this referral form.
* Financial assistance is typically a one-time payment for approved applicants paid to a third-party vendor on the applicant’s behalf.
