You may know Goodwill as a go-to place to donate your gently-used stuff and shop for affordable clothing and household goods. But there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes at Goodwill that you might not think about every day!
Did you know that about every 30 seconds of each workday, Goodwill organizations help someone enter the world of work? It’s true! Helping people achieve a higher level of independence, earn a living, and improve the quality of their lives through the power of work is at the core of Goodwill’s mission.
Employment coach
As a local, independent Goodwill organization, Ohio Valley Goodwill tailors our programs and services to serve the needs of those in our community. We focus our efforts on helping individuals with disabilities, veterans experiencing homelessness, and others facing barriers to employment build their skills, find jobs, and achieve personal and vocational success in the Greater Cincinnati area.
Ohio Valley Goodwill offers comprehensive services and training programs that are specifically designed to help individuals with disabilities reach their goal of community employment. We help set individuals up for success in every phase of the employment process, from the beginning stages of choosing the right vocational direction to finding the right employment opportunity and supports while in that job.
Ohio Valley Goodwill makes it possible for individuals to receive the majority of needed services all in one organization, including career development services, job development placement services, and work site supports (job coaching) services.
