Keep a
Job:
While
finding employment is critical, maintaining the job is
even more important. Thousands of clients secure
employment only to struggle with balancing their
personal and professional responsibilities. To
this end, WFO offers programs to ensure a supportive
transition to employment. From working wardrobes
to the innovative Pathways career development program,
individuals prepare for long-term personal and
professional success with specific action plans and a
week's worth of professional clothing for their new
position.

Build a
Career:
It is
consistently a struggle for front-line employees to
advance beyond the entry-level. These individuals
are working hard, yet still struggling to make ends
meet. WFO's year-long Success Series program
features workshops, financial literacy training, career
coaching and mentoring to provide participants with
critical leadership and knowledge to advance in their
careers. After graduation, these individuals
become members of our expanded alumni network where they
have access to continued career coaching, networking
opportunities and the chance to give back to their
communities.
