Mr. Hernandez joined Landforce in March 2022 to grow his skills and establish his career interests. Through Landforce's transitional job program, which combines workforce development training with land stewardship employment, Mr. Hernandez cultivated his hard and soft skills and set his sights on the future, including his goal of obtaining a CDL.
Ms. Zoie Pitzarella is a 31-year-old single mother of two children. She enrolled with EARN in February 2021. Ms. Pitzarella chose to participate in the EARN program during the COVID Pandemic even though there were opportunities for her to opt out of participation. During her enrollment, Ms. Pitzarella experienced some housing barriers which required her to move. She was able to get the resources and guidance necessary from Goodwill’s EARN case management staff to overcome housing barriers. She also found the in-house counseling program beneficial, participating in individual and group sessions throughout her enrollment. Additionally, Zoie consistently attended the Goodwill EARN family events, and the Team always appreciates her positivity and enthusiasm!
