About
Headstart to Employment
Headstart to
Employment represents Catholic Charities'
agency-wide endeavor toward the goal of self-sufficiency
for all its constituents .Through its programs,
Catholic Charities demonstrates its commitment
to providing the supports which allow the
individual who is faced with a variety of
obstacles a headstart on the road to meaningful
and sustainable employment.
In the year 2000,
Headstart to Employment was created to bring together all of the agency’s employment
programs, namely: World of Work, Freedom Village, Assisted Competitive
Employment (ACE), Youth Employment Program, Disaster Response Employment
Team, and Refuge Resettlement Program. These programs serve a variety
of job seekers — displaced workers, youth, seniors, refugees,
mental health consumers, and the community in general—all of
whom might share significant challenges to employment.
