Testimonials

Larry

Second Chance Academy Graduate

I appreciate Second Chance Academy and Jubilee Jobs because they changed my life — for real. I was just in and out of jail, angry all the time. It was miserable. But I decided I wanted something better for myself. Even when I lost a job because of my background, I didn’t give up — I called Jubilee and said, “This is discouraging, but what can we do now?” Yesterday, May 6, was my one-year anniversary at my current job. Now, I’m the supervisor.

Tara

Jubilee Jobs Participant

I was working for an agency and I lost my job. I had been working there for years and I didn’t have a plan. I was living paycheck to paycheck, so this was a crisis. A good friend of mine told me about Jubilee Jobs and they walked me through this process. It had been a long time since I had been through job interviews. They really stabilized the process and provided the resources, which led me to the job where I am at now.

Jobs Program

Jubilee Jobs, located at 535 W Second St, conducts an orientation every Monday at 9:00 am and Thursday at 1:00 pm…

For each person, the process begins with an open door and warm welcome. At orientation, the first step in the Jubilee Jobs program, job-seekers learn that “there is nothing in your past that can keep you from a productive and hope-filled future.” After orientation, job seekers determine whether or not they will enter the program. Those who decide to participate find a structured 7-step process which leads to success.
