The Office of Workforce Development (OWD) provides career counseling and job search support for Cambridge residents. OWD's adult employment programs prepare residents for employment or training by building employability skills and connecting them to necessary supports. All programs prioritize low-income residents and focus on building long-term relationships through individualized support.
Staff also facilitate job fairs and hiring events several times of year. These events provide opportunities for residents to meet with employers representing a range of occupations and industries. The job fairs also support local employers in recruiting new talent.
