How It Works
Start with a quick screening, bring your documents, and we’ll help you build a resume and plan your next steps.
Step 1: Come to a Screening.
You’ll meet with an employment coordinator who will introduce you to the program, answer your questions, and assess whether it’s the right fit for you.
Bring your I.D., Social Security card, and a resume if you have one.

We’ll help you update your resume and provide professional-development support. You will attend mock interview sessions and our Hello to Hired workshop.
Step 3: You’re work ready!
