It's The Season For Workforce Development Programs


It has been a little awhile since an update was last put on this blog.


However, Ohio City Power is active and moving forward!


As summer winds down this is a reminder that workforce programs are still moving forward, such as the program at Towards Employment


As another reminder Towards Employment has a program available for felons.  As some have been recently left out of the hiring process in this economy Towards Employment has built a strong relationship with Ohio City Power to help.  As participants move on with their lives Ohio City Power is glad to help with things like bus passes, lunches and appropriate clothing.

According to Career Consultant Gloria Baker, Towards Employment put 550 people to work last year through their programs.  Interested residents of Cuyahoga county can contact her at (216) 696-5750, Ext. 309, so she can help put you on the right track.

Putting folks back to work can help with their self-esteem, as well as some income to provide for their families.  If she is not available an interested person can call (216) 696-5750 and ask for Mr. Morris or Mr. Larkins.

Ohio City Power Workforce Development Programs

Ohio City Power is a two-part program for the homeless and jobless, one part focuses on recreational activities and the second part concentrates on workforce development.

Ohio City Power is headquartered at St. Paul's Community Church, a non-profit organization and sister church to The Federated Church in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, home to many volunteer program activities. 






If you have additional questions Executive Director Lisa Braun can be contacted at (440) 289-1657.
