COPING TIPS FOR

TRAUMATIC EVENTS AND DISASTERS

Unfortunately, we are dealing with more natural disasters and human caused traumatic events all the time. These things create trauma and other problems in us and in the people we serve. Trauma is a major barrier to employment in our job seekers and a cause of burnout in workforce staff. This important article includes a lot of very helpful information about coping with these situations in general and dealing with specific kinds of challenging events and disasters.

OJT can be a great tool for helping people become employed. Unfortunately, OJT is often not presented to employers in ways that will motivate them to use it. These tools will help you market it more effectively. Click here.

RESUME WRITING AND TRAUMA

WORKING THROUGH THE FREEZE STATE

I am a multiple trauma survivor. If workforce program staff do not fully understand trauma, it will be easy for them to inadvertently do things that will traumatize job seekers. Doing a resume may seem innocuous, but not to a trauma survivor. This article will tell you why.

LOOKING BACK OVER THIS YEAR AND ON TO 2024!

I have been in workforce development for over fifty years. This last year was one of the most challenging to date. We had the lingering and ever present challenges of covid, dramatic changes in the labor market, overwhelming barriers to employment, increased disparities coming from challenges with diversity, equity, inclusion and access, too many people to serve and not enough funding and so much more! 

In spite of all of these roadblocks and others in our way, we continued to help people find their way into a better place in the world of work. We continued to have a positive impact on people’s lives, their friends and families and communities. We continued to have a positive impact on employers and the economy. I continued to be proud to be part of the field of workforce development. I hope you can pause for a moment and think about all of the positive impact you had on this troubled world in this last and take pride in what you do. I hope this newsletter helps you learn how to do it better. I look forward to our paths crossing in 2024!
