City Center Workforce Development
Ready4Work was developed in 2002 by the Department of Labor’s Center for Faith Based Initiatives as the pilot site of the Ready4Work initiative. Jacksonville Ready4Work brings together a collaboration of existing programs that together create a web of services for returnees. Two faith-based organizations have thus far combined efforts to provide leadership for this program: Operation New Hope and City Center Workforce Development. Operation New Hope was formed in January 1999 to provide affordable housing in the historic Springfield District of downtown Jacksonville and the surrounding urban core, and today provides job training and job placement in the construction field for returnees. City Center Workforce Development recruits participants into the program from prison facilities, partners with other organizations to recruit mentors from the faith community and supplies case management to participants and mentors.

Operation New Hope

In the summer of 2002, The Labor Department's "Center for Faith Based and Community Initiatives" started a small reentry pilot program in Jacksonville, Florida. Called the "Ready4Work Initiative," it incorporated mentoring and job training at Operation New Hope, a community development corporation that since 1999 had been doing its own grassroots work with returnees. Its executive director, Kevin Gay, together with local pastor Garland Scott, who is himself an ex-prisoner, discovered that if they were able to give an ex-prisoner a recommendation based on a few months as an employee at Operation New Hope, that individual would have a much better chance of finding another, more permanent job. HERE for more information.

Ready4Work
Ready4Work was developed in 2002 by the Department of Labor’s Center for Faith Based Initiatives as the pilot site of the Ready4Work initiative. Jacksonville Ready4Work brings together a collaboration of existing programs that together create a web of services for returnees. Two faith-based organizations have thus far combined efforts to provide leadership for this program: Operation New Hope and City Center Workforce Development. Operation New Hope was formed in January 1999 to provide affordable housing in the historic Springfield District of downtown Jacksonville and the surrounding urban core, and today provides job training and job placement in the construction field for returnees. City Center Workforce Development recruits participants into the program from prison facilities, partners with other organizations to recruit mentors from the faith community and supplies case management to participants and mentors.
