Against The Grain

Against the Grain has met with Jobs For Life and has agreed to become a JFL site in Franklin.  JFL will provide all training materials and has made agreements with local companies to make JFL graduates a priority in hiring.  AtG will begin to offer this 16 week curriculum in January of 2007.  This comprehensive program offers biblically based training to provide many of the needed skills to land a job, stay with the company and get promoted.  This will be an incredible addition to the services already provided by AtG.  The decision to follow through with this program was made earlier today and there are already 5 women who want to start the class!!!  Stay posted for updates on the classes and success stories as jobs are secured and lives are transformed.
