The training focuses on essential topics such as workplace etiquette, time management, communication skills, teamwork, and problem-solving. Participants learn how to present themselves professionally, understand employer expectations, and adapt to different work environments. The workshop also introduces participants to goal setting, career planning, and strategies for balancing personal and professional responsibilities. Interactive activities such as mock interviews, group discussions, and self-assessment exercises encourage participants to reflect on their strengths and areas for growth. By the end of the series, participants gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be “work-ready” and leave equipped with the practical tools and confidence needed to secure and maintain employment.\nLearn More\n\n \n \n Career Readiness 2026\n \n \n \n Name(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email(Required)\n \n Phone(Required)Date of Birth(Required)\n \n \n Year\n \n \n Month\n \n \n Day\n \n Zip Code(Required) \n \n \n \n ZIP / Postal Code\n \n \n What is your preferred language?(Required)\n \n \n Albanian\n \n \n \n Arabic\n \n \n \n Cape Verdean Creole\n \n \n \n Chinese\n \n \n \n English\n \n \n \n Haitian Creole\n \n \n \n Khmer\n \n \n \n Portuguese\n \n \n \n Russian\n \n \n \n Somali\n \n \n \n Spanish\n \n \n \n Vietnamese\n \n \n \n Don't Know / Refused\n \n \n \n Other\n Race/Ethnicity(Required)\n \n \n American Indian/ Alaska Native\n \n \n \n Asian\n \n \n \n Black/African American\n \n \n \n Hispanic/Latino\n \n \n \n Native Hawaiian/ Other Pacific Islander\n \n \n \n White Non-Latino/ Caucasian\n \n \n \n Some Other Race\n \n \n \n Multiple Races\n \n \n \n Not Reported\n \n \n \n Not Tracked\n Gender Identity(Required)\n \n \n Female\n \n \n \n Male\n \n \n \n Other\n Have you taken classes with MJE before?(Required)YesNoHow did you hear about Mothers for Justice and Equality?(Required)\n \n \n Phone call from MJE\n \n \n \n BCYF\n \n \n \n Career Fair\n \n \n \n DTA\n \n \n \n Friends and Family\n \n \n \n Hospital\n \n \n \n MJE Program\n \n \n \n NECAT\n \n \n \n School\n \n \n \n Shelter\n \n \n \n SWAP\n \n \n \n Other\n Select any that apply to you:TAFDC recipientSnap pathways recipientI am interested in learning about re-entry services\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ\n/* \n\n \n/* = 0;if(!is_postback){return;}var form_content = jQuery(this).contents().find('#gform_wrapper_282');var is_confirmation = jQuery(this).contents().find('#gform_confirmation_wrapper_282').length > 0;var is_redirect = contents.indexOf('gformRedirect(){') >= 0;var is_form = form_content.length > 0 && !
