The Care Center offers Employment Services to help you on your employment journey. Whether you are unemployed or looking to make a job change, our employment counselors and instructors will help you gain the skills you need to achieve your goals. We also host two job fairs, one in the Fall and one in the Spring, where job seekers have the opportunity to meet and connect with many employers across a range of fields.
