​SOUTH BAY WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD​

“I am so grateful for the support received from the center. I am always available to tell others about my experiences and highly recommend your programs to anyone in need.”

“Don’t be afraid to ask for help. It does not make you less of a man. Don’t give up on life, suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.”

“I am grateful for the assistance received in obtaining much needed industry recognized certifications to reenter the workforce and advance in my career.”

“I am grateful for the support I received from the CUPP program and my parole agent.”

“I am grateful for the support received from AJCC staff during my transition. Despite the perceived barriers, I am grateful for the opportunities and assistance with reentering the workforce in a professional and administrative capacity.”

“I am grateful for the services received from staff, I now have two primary objectives and I’m diligently working and saving “to get a car and an apartment.’”

“Don’t ever be afraid or ashamed to ask for help. Even if that just means asking someone where to get help. And never give up on you, you ARE worth it.”

“The thing I would tell people and fellow veterans that may not have heard about the services available is to find the nearest office to you, set up an appointment to meet with a counselor and take advantage of all the services that the center's offer, you never know what opportunities may be available. The counselors are available for resume critiques and revisions, and are knowledgeable about the job openings throughout the area, and can even fund training that may be beneficial to continued education to help make you a better candidate for prospective employers.”
