    Program activities:

    Participants can increase their job readiness through individualized career coaching, career center workshops, online skill building, job search strategies and access to employers, interview clothes, and other resources. Some clients will enroll with outside vendors for job training or education opportunities and the CPN team assists with planning, referral enrollment and in some cases funding through WIOA. Participants can create an individualized schedule according to their educational and career goals by selecting the services that correspond to their needs and ensure they are engaged in job search or education activities to meet their work requirement, if necessary.
