Goodwill’s Member for Life Program

Goodwill understands that even successful graduates need additional help sometimes. The Member for Life program allows successful Goodwill program graduates to work with Goodwill throughout their life, any time they need it. If your vocational needs change, if you need more training, if you suddenly lose your job, Goodwill can help again, quickly and efficiently. Becoming a Member for Life gives graduates free and immediate services in their times of need.

Dress for Success Program

Goodwill is about jobs and helping people, and sometimes, our clients and community members need some basic tools to help them land the job. Goodwill can help individuals locally to attain clothing for interview or employment needs. We work with other human service agencies and individuals to provide high quality clothing, free of charge.

Referrals must be made by human service agencies for assistance for the clients.
