Mission Statement
SJI supports people from underinvested communities to build careers. By creating equitable workforce systems and developing impactful partnerships, we address structural racism.
About This Cause
What We Do Partnerships and Career Pathways SJI offers individuals from under-invested communities career-start technical and performance skills training that leads to a career pathway in growing local industry sectors. We creatively align support services – such as career navigation, housing, childcare, and transportation – to provide participants the best opportunity to complete their career journey and to secure and retain well-paying jobs. Individuals acquire the skills they need to advance out of poverty, while simultaneously meeting the needs of local businesses for a skilled workforce. Policy Research, and Evaluation Our policy research team’s work complements the partnerships and community pathways efforts and allows us to achieve a far greater impact than we would be able to through programmatic services alone. They perform community-based quantitative and qualitative research focused on making data and analysis accessible and useful to community members and the organizations that serve them. Consulting and Technical Assistance The consulting team helps government, educational institutions, funders, workforce systems, and providers to design, implement and fund more effective programs and services aimed at helping people access training, support, and living-wage careers. SJI is the nation’s leading expert in helping State and local governments and their provider partners operationalize and grow their SNAP E&T programs. SNAP E&T is a federal program supporting a flexible array of employment and training services and supports for individuals on SNAP (food assistance).
