Description

What happens when we stop defining people by their barriers, and start investing in their potential?

Every day, Goodwill Industries International works with individuals who are often left out of the workforce—people without degrees, those impacted by the justice system, and others navigating complex challenges. By surrounding these deserving individuals with a tailored combination of skills training, support, and personal guidance, Goodwill helps individuals move from uncertainty to stability, and from jobs to careers.

In this conversation, CEO Steve Preston will be joined by individuals who have experienced this journey firsthand, sharing powerful stories of resilience, dignity, and the life-changing impact of meaningful work.
