Job Shop

Individualized Support for Job Seekers

Job Shop is a weekly support service where community members can get one-on-one support for whatever they need, from resume development to housing and childcare concerns. The goal of all of our providers is to create a caring environment and offer ongoing personalized support for individuals. Many people come to address immediate concerns and others show up weekly and connect with the additional programming available.
