Jobs for Life: Fall 2020

The Jobs for Life Training Program is a 12-week, relationship-centered jobs training program. Each student is teamed with a Champion who will walk through the class and the months following as they journey from unemployment to employment, or from underemployment to better employment.  Our teachers are business leaders who will interact closely with each student, providing practical job preparation training focused on character development, good work behavior, communication, and interview skills.

This class is proving to be more important than ever as we face record joblessness during the pandemic. Join us for our Fall Semester, kicking off Monday, September 14!


WHEN AND WHERE:

Monday Evenings
September 14 - November 30
Graduation: December 2
6:00 - 8:30 p.m. | Fellowship Hall

HOW TO BE INVOLVED:

  • Champion: Walk alongside a student as a mentor throughout the 12-week class.

  • Meals: Sharing dinner is a vital part of how we build community during the class. Due to COVID, we’ll be ordering box dinners but are still looking for donations to help cover these meals. Email Sterling to give!

  • Business Leaders: There are many opportunities for business leaders to come and serve the class, by sharing their expertise, being a part of a panel, helping provide for the cost of the class, or even participating in mock interviews.
