Mission: The mission of BRIDGES Employment Resource Center is to provide services to dependable, mature workers that will enhance their current job skills and provide new skills to assist them to effectively bridge the transition into meaningful employment. Why BRIDGES? Reaching "retirement age" doesn't always mean "ready for retirement." Americans live longer and continue to participate in the activities and interests they have always enjoyed. Our concept of retirement has changed. Many people 55 and older choose to continue working past traditional retirement age simply because they love to work, to be active and to be involved. Some seek employment because of economic necessity. BRIDGES Employment Resource Center can be that "bridge' between retirement and employment. Our progam can help you explore your options, help you enhance your current skills, and teach you valuable new skills to make you a viable candidate for a new job position. Services Available Through BRIDGES:
Cost & Fee Structure: Most services provided through BRIDGES Employment Services are free of charge, with the exception of: Computer Training Classes and some Resume preparation assistance. For more information or to make an appointment, please call Lisa Howard at 333-3307. Looking for a Job ? Check out our job posting board, which will be activated soon. To post a job listing with the Senior Employment Program, click here or send an email to Lhoward@cfag.org using a subject line of "Job Posting". The Center's Employment Resource Center Advisory Board continues to work hard to develop this new employment program for our members and the community. Thank you to all the members who filled out the questionnaire sent out by the Center asking about their interest and need for this program. Many members would like to take advantage of this program when it's up and running and others had friends or family they were able to refer to us to help serve. If you are currently looking for employment, the Center has implemented a Job Search Board in the Center's coffee shop. Job announcements are posted here for you to review at your leisure. Many jobs are part-time or temporary and are in many different areas of employment. Please check out these opportunities in the coffee shop. If you inquire at one of these companies, please tell them you learned about their openings from the BRIDGES program. To get help with resumes, click here. Members who are interested in temporary or seasonal jobs and would like to be put in our database for referrals should contact Lisa Howard at 333-3307. Thank you for your interest and support as we continue to build "BRIDGES" in the Sioux Falls Community. To apply for a career with the City of Sioux Falls:
