Our group, founded in Jan. 2003, offers assistance to the unemployed and underemployed, whether parishioners or not, whether Catholic or not. Whatever you may need help with in your job search, we can either help you directly or point you in the right direction.

Being unemployed is serious business - and stressful. Maybe just talking with a volunteer about the problems you face may help.

Or maybe you need spiritual direction/support, help with your resume, a networking contact or help with preparing for an interview.

We can help with all stages of your job search from setting a direction for your search all the way through to helping negotiate a job offer.

Probably the most beneficial service we offer is mentoring or coaching. If you are willing to meet in-person or on the phone once each week to discuss your status, to commit to a plan for the next week, and to report on the your success the next week, just let us know and we'll match you with a mentor/coach who can best help you and your situation.

Every other week, members of the Holy Infant Employment Network, along with members of the St. Alban Roe group, meet with members of St. Clare of Assisi group in the St. Clare school library.

Volunteers are needed. You can help in many different ways:

- Provide job leads - let us know when your company has
  an opening. We will get the information to our members.
- Perhaps you could coach or mentor one or two people
  each year - especially those in your field/industry.
- Help with networking. Be available to offer networking
  contacts to those in your field/industry.
- Be a specialist for a specific part of the job search
  process - maybe resumes or interviewing.
