Description
Goodwill Industries of Metropolitan Chicago is a diverse 501(c)(3) non-profit community organization that has provided workforce development solutions in the Chicagoland area since 1919. The agency’s mission is to provide training, employment and supportive services for people with disabilities or disadvantages who seek greater independence. Goodwill’s programs help people with disabilities, people with criminal backgrounds, low-income residents and other barriers to employment develop work and life skills, find work, and successfully perform that work. Incorporating those individuals served into society decreases dependency on government programs and allows Goodwill to act as “not charity, but a chance” for individuals to achieve self-sufficiency, regardless of disability or disadvantage.
