Workforce Development Programs

Empowering People

In today’s world getting and keeping a job is no easy task. More and more people in our communities need our help. For those with a disability, lack of work experience, or poor work history, finding a job can seem impossible. Take a moment to imagine what it must be like trying to leave welfare with no marketable job skills, or find a job after years of struggling with a mental illness. Sometimes people need a hand up, a chance to show the world what they can do.

Goodwill is so much more than stores! Our programs, which include assessment, work adjustment training, community work experience, mental health self-help, employment readiness and employment placement, offer support and encouragement to people preparing for or seeking employment.

"Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others,
you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness
that you are able to give."
