JANE ADDAMS RESOURCE CORPORATION

By the 2000s, JARC became a leader and expert in job training and employer engagement. We began offering our Manufacturing Bridge Program to help lower skilled adults raise their math and reading scores to move into advanced training. With changes in the manufacturing sector, we began to focus its training on computer numerical control (CNC) and welding. And as more people came through our doors looking to start a career, we scaled up our financial support services - including financial coaching and public benefits screening - to help our participants meet their basic needs and build their wealth... At Jane Addams Resource Corporation (JARC), we support healthy communities and economies by teaching low-income adults and workers the skills they need to earn a living wage. But we go beyond basic skills training. We also connect job seekers with good jobs in the manufacturing sector, and we foster the life skills that create a path out of poverty... JARC provides free manufacturing..
