Join us for the 5-part reentry series workshops, every Tuesday!

In this session, Day 4 – Why People Don’t Get Hired, we’ll explore various barriers to job placement and gain a deeper understanding of why returning citizens struggle to secure employment. We will discuss practical strategies to overcome these challenges and the importance of resilience and self-advocacy, offering tools to help participants move forward, regardless of setbacks.

Whether you’re newly released, looking to re-enter the workforce, or justice-impacted, this workshop aims to empower you with the knowledge and skills to navigate the employment landscape with confidence.

The webinar will begin promptly at 11:00am though there will be a fifteen minute grace period for later arrivals.

Historically, women in the Valley had to fight for basic respect in industrial settings. For #WomensHistoryMonth, we’re looking back at those who forged the path for the modern industry.

🔌 Iva Ferris, a former employee at the historic Bethlehem Steel, faced extreme hostility when she worked in the electrical repair shop over 40 years ago. She didn’t let that deter her from her craft, and she mastered the trade.

💪🏼 Bess King and other women started their careers as millwright apprentices at Bethlehem Steel in the late 1970s. Taunted by their male counterparts, they paved the way for pregnancy leave and safety protocols that are now standard in union contracts.
