Are you a woman that has been unemployed 6 months or more? YWCA Bergen County’s Moving Ahead Program provides free training and resources to long-term unemployed women of Bergen County.
A partnership with Teaneck Women Train and Work (TW2), Moving Ahead Program participants will learn the professional skills necessary not only to land a job but to keep it! Session topics will include: resume writing, interview skills, networking skills, and how to “Dress for Success”. During the course of the program, women professionals from YWCA Bergen County’s monthly Women’s Empowerment Network and annual Tribute to Women in Industry (TWIN) will utilize their networks to find job opportunities for program participants.
Moving Ahead gives women the tools to balance themselves physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually. Sessions will empower women to be confident, prepared, and career ready; helping participants learn how to seek and keep jobs. In an age of technology, our goal is to foster close relationships and promote a community development approach as we train women to become more independent and aware of who they are.
