The men and women who turn to Chrysalis often have multiple barriers to finding employment including homelessness, limited education, criminal records, and substance recovery issues. Since 1984, we have assisted over 71,000 people on the path to self-sufficiency at five centers throughout SoCal where poverty and homelessness are most pervasive: Downtown Los Angeles, Santa Monica, Anaheim, and Pacoima in the San Fernando Valley. Chrysalis volunteers facilitate job preparation classes and help individuals facing significant barriers to employment build resumes and practice their interview skills. Not only do volunteers play an integral role in empowering clients to build crucial job search skills, they instill the self-esteem needed to succeed in the interview and beyond. We are currently seeking volunteers (bilingual Spanish-speakers, especially) to help provide resume and practice interview assistance. All Chrysalis volunteers will be required to attend an informational session, receive training and ongoing evaluation, agree to confidentiality terms, and commit to an ongoing schedule.

Offering a hand up, rather than a hand out, Chrysalis empowers our clients to complete a self-directed job search. For more than 30 years, Chrysalis has been dedicated to assisting homeless and low-income individuals to secure and maintain employment. Since 1984, we have assisted over 71,000 people on the path toward self-sufficiency.
