At 66, Richard was barely scraping by. A disabled vet, he struggled to find a job and was at risk of losing his apartment.
Eager to turn his situation around, Richard reached out to an NCOA job training program that helps older adults sharpen their skills and find meaningful work.
Our frontline staff found him an opportunity at a local community-based organization. Very quickly, it became clear to Richard’s supervisor that he was hardworking, passionate, and willing to go the extra mile.
Richard’s dedication paid off. He was offered a part-time job, earning twice what he made as a trainee. |
