This non-profit was a huge stepping stone in my life. I was fresh out of a recovery program with no job skills. At Opportunity Junction I recieved the skills and confidence needed to obtain a job to become self-supporting. I also have huge hope for my future. I attend all the Alumni meetings to keep connected with the men and women who have overcome the same obsticles that I have. I recommend this program for anyone struggling to make it out there in this economy. Man or women this program can teach what you need to know to move to the next level in your life.
The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... all the men and women who have taken advantage of this FREE program.
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... the oppotunity to come back and talk to women who are just coming into the program.
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... very helful and incouraging.
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... hire more people to have the capibilty to serve more clients.
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... NOTHING could have made my expirence better.
- If I ran this organization, I would... try to get more grant writers in so this program could afford to hire more people at better salaries to serve more clients with more classes and services.
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... the numbers of families that are in need of this kind of program.
- One thing I'd also say is that... The only way to know what you can get from this program is come check it out. If you don't need the services, volunteer if you can't volunteer donate money, there can NEVER be enough.
MY ROLE: I was a Client Served & I graduated the 12 week program in Aug 2006 and came back as a paid intern and left with a full time position in Sept 2006
