etcs is working with the leaders
of community and faith-based organizations to open Access Points
across the county. Access Points provide residents with information
and services to help find a job and explore education and training options.
Thus far more than a dozen local churches and community groups have signed
on to become an Access Point.
Access Points are satellite offices located in churches and other
community locations that are outfitted with computers linked to a
streamlined menu of services/information and staffed by trained volunteers.
To date, more than 30 volunteers have gone through the Access Point
training. Among the information and services that residents can obtain via
an Access Point are access to online resources to help in their job search;
assistance with resume writing; and information about education and training
opportunities.
