As one of the largest workforce development/job placement providers in our area, we have to be tuned in to who is growing, what skills are needed, and much more.

Through partnerships, we're creating a system that supports training or retraining for unemployed or under-employed adults.

Thanks to your support, CSL has opened its 11th location inside of Hawthorne Place Apartments in Independence. This location takes a focused approach to helping families build assets and wealth, thanks to unique partnerships.

This is how our entire communities MUST – and DID – come together to make meaningful and lasting change in one family’s life.

When Tammy came to CSL, Work Express helped her create a résumé, she used the computer lab, and was given job leads. Tammy and her daughter also received help with school supplies, the Christmas store, and emergency assistance to help make ends meet.
