Marketing and Outreach Coordinator VISTA at MakeIT Haverhill
MakelT Haverhill (MIH), a project of Community Action, Inc., is a single-story 2000 square foot community space located at 301 Washington Street, Haverhill, MA 01832. Opened in late June 2019 by Keith Boucher and John Cuneo, we focus on workforce development; specifically employment, education and economic stability in the city of Haverhill. Job seekers, regardless of socio-econmic status or identity, can use our space to network, learn, and ultimately generate employment opportunities. We are a proud grassroots organization that is completely VOLUNTEER led! Matching community opportunity with community need. Whether it's training or jobs, we lift up residents and the businesses that will employ them! Along the way, we empower residents with the skills they need to get a job or further their career. MakeIT Haverhill meets clients wherever they are in their life journey. Many of our clients need guidance, direction, or training that they cannot get from their peers, family or friends or even agencies. In addition to our English classes, computer training and employment programs, MakeIT Haverhill offers connections for personalized support for clients who need career or personal development assistance.
