Review for Opportunity Junction, Antioch, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Never before have had I worked with a more extraordinary talented leadership of caring individuals that believe whole hardheartedly in what they do. Opportunity Junction is more than just a program, it is an extended family. Providing the assistance necessary to help individuals accomplish what often appears to be the impossible, Opportunity Junction builds the foundation and self belief necessary for the required metamorphosis to overcome the obstacles that impede success and self sufficiency. It is their unique combination of complete wrap around services that makes their achievement rate so high: math, English and computer skills training; office culture, etiquette and internship experience; instruction and guidance with resume writing, job search and interviewing; mental health, financial, home-ownership and balancing a career with family counseling; opportunity to become certified by Microsoft Corporation as an “Microsoft Office Specialist”, continued benefits as a program alum and much more. These are the essential tools that will exude confidence and offer that something extra often needed when competing in this assertive job market pressed by hard economic times. The beauty in Opportunity Junction’s state of affairs is by changing the caregiver; you affect the entire family for generations to come as well as the economy. As an added bonus, if your employment circumstances change you are always welcome to come back home.
