CareerCatchers provides the region’s most vulnerable residents with individualized job counseling so they can move out of poverty and into fulfilling careers. Many of its un- and under-employed clients also experience homelessness, have disabilities, were previously incarcerated, or are domestic violence survivors. Trained career coaches meet them where they are, working with each client one-on-one to create an individualized employment plan. Clients set career and education goals, map their existing skills, and identify barriers. CC then guides them in creating a resume, applying for the free or accessible training they need, and connecting with potential employers. Community volunteers assist clients with job applications and check in regularly to offer additional support. In just one year, this full suite of services helps over 200 clients obtain jobs, adding $7.9 million to the economy.
