Rural Works! is an economic development strategy that offers a holistic approach to eliminating poverty. Rural Works! is based on the successful Cincinnati Works! Rural Works RVR developed the first rural, proprietary program modeled after the nationally acclaimed Cincinnati Works project, which helps individuals move from poverty to long-term stability. For individuals returning from incarceration, our Rural Works program provides workforce reintegration services, mentoring, and stabilization support. Rural Works also serves both unemployed adults and the underemployed—those working but still living in poverty. For underemployed participants, our long-term goal is to help them reach 200% of the federal poverty level and achieve economic self-sufficiency. When people become economically stable, they become taxpayers, productive community members, and no longer rely on public assistance. Our customizable workshops cover employment readiness (resumes, mock interviewing, applications), goal setting, workplace values and expectations, and much more. We work inside jails, prisons and in community settings.

Discover RVR's achievements through inspiring Success Stories of individuals who have risen to fortune, acclaim, or remarkable accomplishments. More Success Stories Tina Kinirsky Tina Kinirsky first joined RVR as a Rural Works client in 2014. She successfully completed the program and began building a stable future. However, life presented setbacks, and Tina experienced a relapse that led to her re-incarceration. Rather than let that define her, Tina chose to grow. While incarcerated, she enrolled in RVR’s occupational skills training program, where she completed the Accuplacer course and earned her MSSC-CPT (Certified Production Technician) certification. Recognized for her exceptional mathematical abilities, Tina began tutoring fellow inmates through RVR’s prison education program. Upon release, Tina was hired by Grote Industries and continued her work as a tutor for RVR. She quickly expanded her role, contributing to data management for the Adult Education program and serving as a teacher’s assistant in local jails. Always striving for more, Tina also enrolled in college to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Business. In December 2024, Tina will graduate with her degree and step into a new role as RVR’s jail teacher, serving multiple correctional facilities. Her journey is a testament to resilience, transformation, and the power of second chances. Tina is a passionate, dedicated educator who now helps others rewrite their own stories—and we couldn’t be prouder of her. My Success Story
