Review for Some Inc, Washington, DC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have had the pleasure of working with the CET center for several years now. My company has employed approximately 7 individuals, and 6 are still here! I believe this successful program is due to the particular model they use. They address ALL barriers to success, not just job training. Substance abuse issues, housing, day care, medical care - all impact a person's ability to be successful in a job. I have worked with other organizations, and have not had the success I have experienced working with SOME CET.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Watching those that we have hired be successful in their jobs. It's been a great experience seeing the lives of these individuals change.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Working with the staff and the students. Making successful placements of the graduates.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

Very dedicated, hard working, and have the sincere desire to help others.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Provide even more job training and resources to individuals to enable them to be successful members of society.

Ways to make it better...

My company had more employment opportunities to provide to the graduates.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

The economy. Employers, such as mine, have limited opportunities for jobs.

One thing I'd also say is that...

More organizations should use the SOME CET model for success. It works.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?
