Jobs, Education, and Training (JET) program

The Jobs, Education, and Training (JET) program teaches job search and career skills and provides referrals for clients to find jobs. JET also helps victims of domestic violence obtain Family Violence Waivers. JET is a customized program for the specific needs of each participant, which includes participants from any Tubman service program, whether or not they are in residence at the shelter; however, you do not have to be staying in the shelter or working with another Tubman program to participate in JET.

The JET program provides clients case management assistance to facilitate economic empowerment by eliminating the classic barriers experienced by women entering the work force. In some cases, JET can also provide temporary transportation assistance and transportation planning and access to childcare resources.

JET also partners with local and national businesses, organizations, corporations, and volunteer experts to provide employment referrals, counseling, internships, mentoring, support groups, résumé writing and interviewing skills workshops, career training through links with local community colleges and businesses, wardrobe support, and assistance with job placement.
