Center for Employment Oppertunites: Action Environmental Group

 

  

 

If you have been following our blog you already know that recently the Wall Street Journal covered the story of one of our employees Hector Morales. Hector's journey from being incarcerated to joining the Center of Employment Opportunities (CEO) to becoming a model member of our Action team is inspirational to say the least.

The Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO) is dedicated to providing immediate, effective and comprehensive employment services to men and women with recent criminal convictions. The highly structured and tightly supervised programs help participants regain the skills and confidence needed for a successful transition to a stable, productive life.

We are so proud to be apart of this program and support those who want to work find a fulfilling career. Above is a video with members of the Action team including Head of Safety Ken Levine and CEO Ron Bergamini. Enjoy!
