Empowering Those With Barriers

Welcome to Make Your Job

Make Your Job is a program at Goodwill NYNJ that teaches adults with disadvantages how to be their own boss, using Makerspace Technology. Every participant in the program learns how to use a Laser Cutter, a 3D Printer, and how to program Arduino circuit boards. The skills learned in the program may be added to the resumes of participants to increase their job outlook or be used to create new things that they can then sell, and make money from. The program is free so if you would like to apply or want more information, Email Kerry Lohorn at klohorn@goodwillny.org or call at (973)-481-2300 Ext.275

In the matter of economic success, most of us start by placing the most outstanding resumẻs, go to interviews, and land a great job. I did the same in many occasions. But at some point, I needed some understanding, some training, a product, and a market in order to reinvent myself and survive.
