David & Ivory’s Work Program

David & Ivory Ministries offers a comprehensive Work Program designed to empower individuals by providing them with the necessary skills, training, and support to secure meaningful employment and build a sustainable future. The program is tailored to meet the unique needs of participants, including probationers, parolees, and those who are experiencing homelessness.

The Work Program at David & Ivory Ministries focuses on equipping participants with job readiness skills, vocational training, and connecting them with employment opportunities in various industries. The program aims to address the barriers individuals may face in finding employment, such as a lack of education, work experience, or access to resources. Obtaining gainful employment can be extremely challenging for an individual with a criminal history. D&I has entered its 23rd year of focusing its services on a population with criminal histories. Our years of hands-on experience and knowledge working with this population, coupled with our on-going relationship with agencies such as Workforce Solutions that has specific targeted programming for the ex-offender, only serves to enhance the success of these individuals securing substantially gainful employment. 

Key features and components of the Work Program include:

Job Readiness Training:
Participants receive comprehensive training and coaching in job search techniques, resume building, mock interview skills, workplace etiquette, and other essential skills necessary for successful employment.
Job Placement Assistance:
David & Ivory Ministries have established strong connections with employers in various industries, allowing them to assist participants in securing job placements that match their skills and interests. The organization provides ongoing support, networking opportunities, and job matching to ensure successful employment outcomes.

In addition to job placement assistance, David & Ivory Ministries also offer direct employment opportunities through their own initiatives and partnerships. These opportunities provide participants with a stepping stone towards financial stability and independence.
