YWCA - New Employment Programs

Your YWCA in Marin understands the challenges older adults face when rejoining the workforce or jump-starting a new career. It can be daunting, especially considering how fast technology changes.

That’s why we’re launching three new free work programs to help get you back into the job market with the confidence, skills, guidance, and support you need to be successful.

Building on the momentum of Fifty+ for Women, each program is tailored to a specific audience and designed to prepare you for your exciting new path. Here’s a snapshot:
