Our next free Certificate of Qualification for Employment (CQE) clinic is Saturday, February 20th! We’re very excited to be providing opportunities for ex-offenders in Summit County to take a step toward gaining employment and independence!
We are looking for students to volunteer from 9:00am-12:45pm on Saturday, February 20th. The clinic will be held at the Mt. Calvary Baptist Church (422 Bell St. Akron, OH 44307). The time you volunteer can be applied toward your graduation requirement as pro bono limited means hours.
