Mr. Crim and I recently had a thought-provoking discussion about the closure of Job Corps and its implications for the future. We explored the history of the program, my personal involvement, and strategies to support those impacted by the closure, including former graduates. If you know of any resources or organizations in Will and Cook Counties that can provide job or career training, employment opportunities, or housing assistance, please fill out the Google form by clicking on the link below.

The Joliet Job Corps Resource Hub is a comprehensive resource designed to support Job Corps students who have been displaced by the recent closure, as well as past graduates seeking new opportunities. This platform will provide a curated list of job and career development resources, including employment opportunities, training programs, and professional development workshops. In addition, the hub will include housing resources to assist individuals in finding stable living arrangements during their transition. By connecting users with essential services and support systems, the Joliet Job Corps Resource Hub aims to empower former Job Corps participants as they navigate their next steps and build successful futures.
