Dignity of Work Initiative – Championship & Student Orientation
- This event has passed.
Description
The Dignity of Work Initiative of the Freedom & Virtue Institute is a church-based initiative that involves volunteers and employers in assisting people in getting meaningful employment. We utilize the Jobs for Life (JfL) curriculum. Jobs for Life is a global nonprofit organization that engages and equips the local Church to address the impact of joblessness through the dignity of work. By mobilizing a worldwide network of volunteers committed to applying biblically-based training and mentoring relationships, Jobs for Life helps those in need find dignity and purpose through meaningful work.
As apart of the Dignity of Work Initiative you will receive access to Jobs for Life online resources and training materials that will equip your volunteer leaders at your church or organization to implement the Jobs for Life class.
Students meet your Champion Community: In addition to the training you will receive, every student has a champion (a mentor or a group of mentors) who provides the student friendship and support both during the training and following graduation. With this training and support system, churches and community organizations provide a reliable, trustworthy workforce to meet the pressing employment needs of companies in their area.
