Transitional jobs program to help non-custodial parents

Goodwill and the Georgia Department of Human Services Division of Child Support Services are participating in a national research project, GoodTransitions, to help low-income, non-custodial parents find stable employment. Participants will receive short-term paid transitional jobs in addition to enhanced supportive services:

• Occupational skills training
• Case management
• Job placement and retention assistance

Eligibility: Unemployed/low income non-custodial parents with a child support order in place and who live in Cobb, Gwinnett, Fulton, DeKalb, Henry, or Clayton counties. Half of eligible applicants will be admitted to this program.

To apply, contact your DCSS Fatherhood Agent to obtain a referral and then attend an information session. Contact the GoodTransitions team for additional information at goodtransitions@ging.org or 404-420-1160.
