Towards Employment

Towards Employment Our mission is to empower individuals to achieve and maintain self-sufficiency through employment. We help employers find employees who can do the job.

We champion the potential of every person to succeed in a rewarding career and work to strengthen policies that provide pathways to opportunity for all workers. Since 1976, we have helped over 122,000 people prepare for a career, get a career, keep a career, and move up the career ladder through career readiness training, placement, retention and supportive services provided in a comprehensive and

responsive manner. We have a dual customer approach, ensuring our programming for career seekers is informed by industry demand and responsive to hiring needs of local businesses. We help people move forward on their pathway to prosperity.

Popcorn, partnerships, and pathways to careers! 🍿
Our first Popcorn Pop‑Up of the year at Cleveland Public Library at Glenville Campus was a HUGE success! Thank you all who stopped by to connect and snack on some delicious popcorn - We loved connecting with the community to share how TE helps connect people to meaningful careers.
Huge thanks to the Glenville CPL team for being so welcoming and supportive! We can’t wait to "pop-up" with popcorn at more Cleveland Public Library locations this summer 👏
