Thank you to our

2010 Sponsor,

AARP South Dakota, for their continued support of the

BRIDGES Employment Resource Center and the 50 + worker.

 

 

The BRIDGES Employment Resource Center is

supported by the

Sioux Empire United Way

and administered through

The Center for Active Generations. 

The Older Workers Resource Center

Mission

The mission of BRIDGES Employment Resource Center is to provide services to dependable, mature workers that will enhance their current job skills and provide new skills to assist them to effectively bridge the transition into meaningful employment.

Why BRIDGES?

Reaching "retirement age" doesn't always mean "ready
for retirement." Americans
live longer and continue to participate in the activities
and interests they have
always enjoyed. Our concept
of retirement has changed. Many people 50 and older choose to continue working past traditional retirement age simply because they love to work, to be active and to be involved. Some seek employment because of economic necessity.

BRIDGES Employment Resource Center can be that "bridge' between retirement and employment. Our program can help you explore your options, help you enhance your current skills, and teach you valuable new skills to make you a viable candidate for a new job position.
