JobTrain transforms lives and communities in Silicon Valley. Since 1965, we've helped more than 150,000 men and women in the Valley reclaim their lives from welfare, incarceration and unemployment by preparing them for successful careers in high-demand and emerging fields. JobTrain, formerly OICW, transforms personal motivation into real skills that are the foundation for self-sufficiency and self-esteem. In addition to “vocational training,” we understand that fundamental and sustainable transformations require a high school diploma, computer literacy, an interview outfit, as well as access to basics like housing, transportation and childcare—and we assist our clients with all of these needs. In a rough economy, JobTrain places 75% of its graduates in quality jobs. Each individual success story proves that—with time, commitment and resources—powerful transformations do happen. Show less
