We were thrilled to welcome 55 job seekers—one of our strongest turnouts yet! Even better, the workshop is now available to watch on our website, so more people can benefit: https://www.jobsnow.org/getaheadevents

One attendee shared this powerful message with us:
“Thank you for the invitation to this event. The workshop was incredibly informative and answered many questions about cover letters and communicating transferable skills. I am encouraged to learn that I can request reasonable accommodation in the application process. I recently lost my sight after a long career in learning and development. I am now ready to get back in the workforce, and today's experience confirmed that there is a place for me. Once again, I thank you.” —Kevin

Messages like this remind us why this work matters. Thank you for helping us support and empower job seekers in such meaningful ways.

We’re excited to keep the momentum going and look forward to seeing many of you at the WPU job fair next week!

From managing 650 mg/dL blood sugar to crushing 26.2-mile marathons, Bliss is redefining what it means to lead with empathy and “badass” adaptability.
