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:

- 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.
