Thrive GAP Early Support AI for Workforce Retention
Assistive AI flags early disengagement patterns so staff can deliver timely, trauma-informed support to women in trades and caregivers - improving retention and advancement.
In Rocky Mount and surrounding rural communities, women - especially caregivers and women entering trades - often exit workforce programs when stress compounds and support arrives too late. Thrive GAP is a staff-only, assistive AI tool that analyzes existing engagement signals (attendance, milestones, participation) to flag early strain and prompt human follow-up. No scoring, surveillance, or automated decisions. OIC leads implementation with partners myTCreative, Living Better Life, and Strengthening Hope Within to strengthen retention, completion, and job success.
