Chiya S, Bridges to College
We meet job seekers where they are in life and partner with them to develop skills for in-demand jobs and promising career pathways.
Since 1938, our organization has employed its resources to bridge divides, seize new opportunities, and grow our impact. You can change a life.
The Builder’s Society is our way of recognizing our most generous supporters — the individuals who believe and have trust in the work we are doing. Membership to The Builder's Society begins at $1000.
You can create a legacy through a planned gift to JVS Boston. We’d like to help you continue your support into the future.
Members of the Ida Hoos Founders Society play a transformative role in helping JVS ensure every client has the tools to build a better future.
We change the world one person at a time. Jobs increase income for workers and their families, changing the neighborhoods they live in and the communities they represent.
We develop new trainings and programs to meet the diverse and changing needs of our job seekers and employer partners.
One size doesn’t fit all. We work with job seekers to identify, set, and achieve their career goals, based on their circumstances, needs, and passions.
We partner with people to develop the skills needed for in-demand jobs, and we match job seekers with the employer and job that’s right for them.
Our programming provides people with the skills and education they need to advance from a good job to a promising career pathway.
