Adventist Health Castle Community Outreach Hui Workforce Readiness Program

Funded by City and County of Honolulu and Harold K.L. Castle Foundation

The Workforce Readiness program aims to support and provide services to assist individuals that have experienced hardships, hindering career development. Together, with community partners, we are committed to providing our community with opportunities and technical skill workshops and referrals to secure higher-wage jobs across various workforce sectors. Providing different opportunities in clinical and non-clinical pathways to become career ready, whether entering or re-joining the workforce. In working with our community, we hope to empower participants through our COPE Health Scholars collaboration, available internships, soft and technical skills workshops, assistance with hiring process, and volunteering.
