Job Training Classes and Placement

The Neighbor Center now offers education, job training and employment opportunities.

The core purposes are establishing a sense of status and esteem through enrollment, a sense of belonging and connection to others, experiencing acceptance through a group process and goal-setting as well as achievement. The entire process is rooted in cognitive behavioral techniques and will be done in a faith-based, supportive environment. The end goal is for each returning neighbor to find the life God has always intended for them.


Stable employment is critical.

"Stable employment is critical to a successful transition into the community, but reentering individuals often encounter significant barriers in finding employment upon release from prisons and jails, including low levels of education, limited vocational (or marketable) skills and limited work experience. 

Email Our Team

Reentry programs have demonstrated the overwhelming need for employment opportunities for people released from prison and jail, and the need to facilitate the creation of job opportunities for this population.
