Hopeworks is seeking volunteer support for a multi-part engagement day that combines career readiness support with hands-on beautification efforts at our CRIB site.
Volunteers will participate in two primary project areas:
Mock Interviews and Career Readiness Support
Volunteers will conduct one-on-one mock interviews with their young professionals, providing real-time feedback, interview coaching, and encouragement. This helps participants build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and prepare for competitive job opportunities.
CRIB Outdoor/Gardening Support
A separate group of volunteers will assist with gardening and outdoor beautification at their CRIB property. This may include planting, weeding, general landscaping, and light outdoor clean-up to help maintain a welcoming and supportive living environment for the young adults in transitional housing.
The day will also include a brief huddle and tour so volunteers can better understand our mission and the impact of their support.
Agenda:
9:00 AM – Arrival & Morning Huddle
9:15 AM – Site Tour
9:45 AM – Group Photo & Breakout
Volunteers will split into two groups:
• Group 1: Mock Interviews
• Group 2: CRIB Gardening & Outdoor Support
12:00 PM – Lunch (Pizza, salad, and soda provided.)
After Lunch
• CRIB volunteers return to gardening projects
• Mock Interview Session (1:00 PM – 2:00 PM)
2:00 PM – End of Day
