On January 16, Goodwill NYNJ launched its second cohort of the Career in Retail Pathway training at the SUNY Fashion Institute of Technology. Sixteen retail employees are participating in the 7-week training, which is free to employees at the FIT campus and is sponsored by Goodwill NYNJ.
Goodwill NYNJ and Arc Herkimer have ended their partnership in operating the Goodwill-Arc Herkimer store. The Arc Herkimer will take full control of the store's operations effective February 1. For almost ten years, sales proceeds from the retail location supported the mission of both nonprofit organizations in their efforts to serve the community.
Kevin Crosley, President/CEO Arc Herkimer said:
Goodwill NYNJ will officially open its Integrated Health and Wellness Center on Thursday, October 12 with a breakfast reception and ribbon cutting ceremony with elected officials and community leaders starting at 8:30 a.m. We cordially invite all members of the community to attend and to learn more about our services.
September 10-17 is National Direct Support Professional Week
