Our Jobs for Life program is a biblically based curriculum that utilizes mentors to help students grow in the soft skills they need to obtain and retain employment. If you have any job experience and would like to walk through a class with students, sharing your wisdom and experiences, we'd love to have you. If you just aren't sure, we'd love to have you sit in on a class to find out what it's like.
Currently, we have a class full of women but our only mentors are men. We need women available to share! Classes are M-F 9 am-12 pm. We need mentors who are available to attend one or more class sessions a week.
