This is an intensive six day workshop for CalWorks participants who are entering or re-entering the workforce. Workshop participants learn how to prepare job applications and resumes, talk to employers, dress for interviews, plan for economic independence and take action toward achieving their life goals.
Workshops begin at least once a month, and serve both English and non-English speakers.
Child Care and transportation services are available for workshop participants. Participants move from the six day motivational phase into the three week active job search phase, located in the Network center. Job seekers will have access to job coaching services, computers, telephones, copiers, fax machines, a message center, and other resources needed to carry out a successful job search. EDD staff are available on-site, to provide job listings and placement services. Child care and transportation services will be provided for active participants.
