Workforce Development & Employment Services

La Casa de Don Pedro knows that steady employment that offers livable wages is key to economic advancement. All of our adult education programs share job training opportunities that our partners in Greater Newark run. In addition, we work to create opportunities for our community to participate in career training and job placement as well. The programs we offer continue to evolve as we embark on new partnerships with job training programs and strengthen relationships with employers looking to hire.
