Our mission is “to ensure that every person in the community has the opportunity to live to his or her potential and to attain personal and economic self-sufficiency.” Goodwill believes in the power of work as a means to self-sufficiency and a transformational element in the lives of the more than 19,000 people served each year. Goodwill promotes sustainable change throughout the community and supports a growing economy through a model that provides education, training and opportunities to help the working poor, people moving from welfare to work, and disabled adults attain true self-sufficiency.

Goodwill serves as a link between the education and business communities by providing intensive, classroom-based career development services to more than 15,000 students in 29 area schools. These programs help students stay in school, graduate and prepare for post-secondary education or immediate entry into the workplace following graduation. Goodwill’s youth programs are proactive, prevention programs designed to help teens establish real-world connections between education, career development and the local business community.
