Jobs for Life will launch at the Shelby Supply Company this summer! Two class sessions of Jobs for Life in 2023 will be offered. The Summer class will start on June 13th. The Fall class starts on September 12th. Both sessions of their Jobs for Life class will be held at Shelby Supply Company, 24 E. Hendricks St.
Jobs for Life is a 10-week job preparedness course. Individuals will learn about the purpose of work. That there is dignity in work. That work is how we support ourselves, our families, and our community. Individuals will participate in career assessments, receive guidance in resume writing, participate in mock interviews, and learn how to talk about difficult past life experiences with potential employers.
The Class is free of cost, but participants must commit to attending classes and doing all coursework. A student can only miss two classes and graduate the course. Each student is paired with a “champion” or mentor who will walk through the class material with them. Champions will also encourage students after graduation during and after the job application process.
If you have interested individuals or feel that a job readiness course would be beneficial for a participant please send them to https://shelbysupply.co/jobsforlife to register.
Thank you for the work you do to make Shelbyville a stronger and safer community.

Director of Shelby Supply Co.
