Support From Our Employment Team
You don’t have to take the next step alone.
At CFO, our Employment Team is made up of peers who truly understand the journey toward meaningful work. They’re here to walk beside you—helping you identify your strengths, explore opportunities, and connect with employers who value your unique skills and goals.
Resume Assistance
Your resume is often the first impression you make. However, if writing or updating it feels stressful, we can help. Together, we’ll create a polished resume that highlights your strengths and improves your chances with employers. In addition, we’ll offer practical tips to make your experience stand out to hiring managers.
Workforce Development Opportunities
Growing your skills opens doors. That’s why we offer workshops and training sessions designed to build confidence and expand your career options. For example, you can practice interview techniques, strengthen communication skills, and learn industry-specific knowledge. As a result, you’ll feel more prepared and empowered to reach your goals.
Job Referrals
Connections matter when looking for work. Therefore, our employment support services link you with local employers and job placement agencies. We also help you explore openings that fit your interests, experience, and career path. With our team’s guidance, you can expand your network and find opportunities that match your goals.
Access to Technology
Job hunting often requires reliable tools. Each of our centers offers access to a computer lab, printer, and landline. These resources make it easier to complete applications, connect with employers, and manage important tasks during your search. In addition, our staff can show you how to use these tools effectively so you can move forward with confidence.

”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.
