For 27 years, JVS has served tens of thousands of disadvantaged individuals with our unique, results-oriented approach to employment. In today's economy, with unemployment at its lowest levels in over forty years, people who can get jobs - have jobs. Those who can't, face serious barriers to employment and JVS must provide more intensive, long-term services to help them succeed.

brindicy

 

 

Brindicy Alcaraz went through JVS' Work Resource Program for youth with special needs.
