Employment Transition Support & Resources

Welcome to the St. Elizabeth Seton Parish Employment Transition Support Pages.   

Look for announced meeting dates in our weekly bulletin or the meeting page of this website.

The mission of this ministry is to provide support to those who are unemployed or under-employed during their time of job transition. Recognizing the stresses placed on job seekers and their families during this time; members of our parish with skills in human resources, finance and other areas meet regularly with job seekers to listen, to pray together, and offer job search advice, direction and focus. We are not a job club, but a support team offering help and networking. A number of parish volunteers from various industries have offered to be networkers in their industry, and their contact information is posted on our parish website. Our pages on the parish web site also offer job search links, and a number of open positions referred to us by parishioners.

This group provides those seeking work, whether unemployed or under-employed, with a meeting based and e mail based environment for prayer, sharing and networking; and with guidance and resources to help in job searching during this transition. 

Here you will find links to job search resources such as the St. Joseph the Worker Ministry as well as links to selected search engines and databases.

You will also find pages featuring listings of individuals who have stepped up to help.  By volunteering their names, email addresses, employer’s company name, and industry, these parishioners are available as networking resources to supply contact information and forward résumés to the right people in their area of business.
