CARITAS Works Workforce Development Program

Why a Workforce Development Program? Karen Stanley, CEO CARITAS Karen O’Brien, COO CARITAS Marilyn Milio, Works Program Manager

How Did We Achieve these Statistics? What does it mean to go from shelter to stability in employment? Since 2011, 443 men have graduated from CARITAS Works 43 classes 92% found jobs within 30 days 56% employed for a year $11.16 starting hourly rate $12.40 after a year

Our Mission We provide intensive and innovative career preparation, character development and job placement support and resources to individuals with major barriers to employment, empowering them to overcome their circumstances and forge pathways to lasting success.

Moving to Stability CARITAS Works Workforce Development Program consists of three components that will ultimately guide the students to attain sustainable economic security and become productive, self- sustaining, joyful, and service-driven members of their community.  

CARITAS Works Works is a five-week, eight hour a day, job preparedness and skills development program. The program encompasses: character building, career development and life skills classes.

Job Club Job Club provides access to the computer lab, employment resources, and personal assistance with job applications and resources to support employment opportunities. Temporary employment through CARITAS is available while our client is an active member of Works Job Club.

AfterWorks AfterWorks offers two years of job placement support and follow-up and includes access to the computer lab, working with volunteer and staff career coaches, job resources and classes to support our graduate’s current employment and offers opportunities to help them discover and develop careers.
