Employment and training programs we offer
Self-Sufficiency Programs
CSCC works with low-income families to help them turn their lives around. Our programs build skills, change attitudes, and help find jobs for people in need. Our goal is to help low-income families become economically self-sufficient.
CSCC also provides employability skills training for food stamp (SNAP) recipients in Clackamas county. Our customized job search assistance, referrals to other community services and the ability to issue support services to clients all help in the effort to move people from food stamps to self-sufficiency.
Clackamas County Community Corrections
Through a contract with Clackamas County Community Corrections, CSCC provides employment and training services to individuals who are on parole or probation. Services include individual career counseling, resume preparation, customized job development and "soft skill" training. The program is located at the CSCC office which is directly across the street from the Community Corrections office. Referrals to the program are made by Community Corrections.
