St. Joseph the Worker

SJW's cause is to help the Valley's homeless and disadvantaged people get quality employment. SJW accomplishes this by providing the support and resources needed to make individuals employable. Doing this will make them more self-sufficient; healthier lives can be lived, and families and communities will benefit. SJW's vision is that SJW, through employment, will dramatically decrease homelessness in a large, identifiable segment of the homeless community. Also, prevent homelessness from becoming more of a problem in an area by expanding SJW's ability to reach and employ this homeless or at-risk population. SJW will employ those who are ready, able, and willing to work, no matter what the circumstances are. And anyone who wants to work or can work, but there are no jobs available, will not be left homeless under any circumstances.
