Sara Cotten and the other coordinators from The Center for Opportunity have been extremely helpful for clients staying at the Eleanor Kennedy Shelter. Clients have received comprehensive employment support like assistance with designing resumes, finding jobs that suit their skills, and guidance with writing cover letters. CFO coordinators have worked diligently to reach out to Shelter referrals within one business day. We are grateful to have such a wonderful partnership with CFO and look forward to continuing to work together to connect shelter clients with much-needed employment resources.
