A Message from the SE Works Leadership
Dear Friends,
At the end of this program year (July ‘02 – June ’03), we were well into our seventh year of
providing critical employment and training services to southeast Portland neighborhoods. We
experienced great success in achieving our core mission, enhancing business and community
access to employment resources to improve the economic health of the community. Here are a
few of this year’s highlights included in the report:
Increased accessibility of services for all customers
Interviewed 355 potential job applicants for Standard TV and Appliance, placed 31 in
employment, and maintained a 96% job retention rate
Completed the development of an industry specific One Stop Career Center at Oregon
Health and Sciences University
Instituted a new customer tracking program that tallied over 5,500 customer visits
Provided a range of services to over 3,330 youth and adult customers
These accomplishments are especially impressive in light of the on-going strain created by an
increasing demand for service in times of diminishing resources. As with most public and nonprofit entities, we are becoming skilled at finding new sources of inspiration and opportunity. At
SE Works, our most valuable resource is the team charged with delivering and directing
services. SE Works’ staff demonstrates a level of resiliency and dedication that is unparalleled.
Our Board of Directors provides unwavering support and leadership. One Stop partners and
volunteers invest time, money, and expertise allowing us to offer the right service mix to our
customers. You will find examples of these contributions throughout this report.
You will also find several themes in the stories told here – partnership, volunteerism, resiliency,
resourcefulness, innovation, customer service, team work, stewardship. The most prevalent
theme this past year was increased accessibility. Through a number of projects and
partnerships, SE Works invested significant time and energy to ease access to the facility and
services for customers who experience disabilities. A welcome by-product of our efforts was
increased access for all of SE Works’ customers.
We hope you will find the same encouragement and inspiration in this report that we have.
Thank you all for your enduring support and commitment. It is an honor to serve this community.
Warm regards,
Heidi Soderberg
Executive Director
Jeff Thompson
Board Chair
NEIGHBORHOOD JOBS CENTER: One Stop Career Center
Once again, Neighborhood Jobs Center (NJC)
services at SE Works were in high demand as the
unemployment rate in Portland continued to grow.
This year 1,957 customers used the NJC to conduct
job searches and participated in resume writing,
interviewing and computer skills workshops. A new
customer tracking program revealed that we had over
5,500 customer visits. Jobseekers are experiencing
longer periods of unemployment than before and are
looking for ways to stand out from the competition. In
these tough times, people are continuing to turn to
SE Works for resources and support—and
encouraging their friends, neighbors and family to
come with them.
As a designated “One Stop Career Center,” SE
Works offers a wide range of employment services.
This year we focused on improving our diverse
community’s access to these resources. We
reorganized the NJC so that resources are easily
accessible to individuals. This “self-service” strategy
allows staff to provide individualized attention to
customers requiring additional supports such as
access to training programs or financial assistance
(housing, childcare, transportation and work-related
clothes and tools).
To facilitate easier access in the NJC we:
created power-point tutorials
purchased career exploration and English as a
Second Language (ESL) software
added a resume class focused on formatting
electronic resumes
placed community resource materials on
carousels so individuals can easily reach them
translated “Job Search Tips” sheets and
PowerPoint workshops into Russian and
Spanish
recruited volunteer staff from the National
Council on Aging and SMS Services, who
provided a total of 60 hours per week of
customer support
translated workshop and classroom materials
into Braille, with help from Independent Living
Resources
These modifications increased accessibility for all job
seekers and fostered a sense of community among
our customers. Instead of turning to staff for help
with the computers or deciphering a job description,
now they are looking to one another. The
Neighborhood Jobs Center—which has always been
the core of SE Works—has become the heart of this
community resource.
HIGHLIGHTS:
Number of Job Seekers...
Receiving Core Services: 1,957
Enrolled in Intensive Services: 236
In Intensive Services Obtaining Employment: 164
Attending an Information Session: 2,193
Attending Workshops: 1,056
Job seekers receiving Intensive Services found
employment with an average wage of $11.10.
CUSTOMER PROFILE
Irene and Tony Calongy, originally from the Ukraine,
found SE Works shortly after their arrival in the U.S.
in 2001. Personal Advocate Lorna Fell assisted the
couple in preparing resumes and cover letters, and
coaching on interview skills. This coaching is
particularly important for Russian-speaking
customers, since their native cultures typically
discourage the type of self-promotion that is essential
for job interviews in this country.
Tony was trained as a computer system
administrator, but he lacked English language
proficiency required for the position. After
participating in an ESL course, Tony found a job as a
CNC machine operator and continues to take classes
to improve his English. Increased English skills and
concern about potential layoffs are prompting Tony to
investigate new career opportunities and reach for
enhanced career goals.
Irene, who was a nurse in the Ukraine, quickly found
employment as a caregiver, but worked with Lorna
after being laid off last year. SE Works partnered
with Workforce Network, allowing Irene to attend
medical terminology classes. She recently went to
work as a nursing assistant. Her long-term goal is to
pass the Certified Nurse Assistant exam and
eventually become a Nurse.
“We appreciate the people at SE Works for
their support and help in our job search and
career planning.” - Tony & Irene Calongy
Partnerships: The Center on Self-Determination
Over the past two years, the Center on SelfDetermination at Oregon Health and Science
University (OHSU) provided funding, education,
and technical assistance to SE Works. This
demonstration project was designed to make One
Stop services more accessible to customers
experiencing disabilities.
The Center on Self-Determination (The Center)
conducted an evaluation of our office environment
and systems. We learned techniques for making
SE Works more accessible, such as color-coding
the rooms and modifying workshop materials to
address a range of learning styles.
In addition, SE Works adapted the youth
orientation and job search curricula to ensure that
young people with disabilities feel welcome and
are able to access all of our services. The Center
assisted SE Works’ staff to become more
proficient in developing individualized employment
plans that maximize strengths and skills of youth.
Finally, The Center provided a series of monthly
staff development trainings on topics such as:
Universal Design
Learning-Disabilities: A Day in the Life
Hearing Impairments
Assistive Technology
Visual Impairments
Mental Health: A Day in the Life
Developing Person-Centered Plans
Assisting businesses to recruit, retain, and
support people experiencing disabilities
While we have always maintained a commitment
to serving our entire
southeast community, this
partnership has enabled
us to more fully realize this
goal.
CUSTOMER PROFILE
Twenty-year-old Lyudmila Kasimov, who is
hearing impaired, came to the U.S. from Russia
with her family eleven years ago. Initially,
Lyudmila found out about SE Works through
her sister, who had been working with Russianspeaking Youth Advocate, Emma Zwaschka.
Although Lyudmila’s parents had originally
intended for SE Works to assist her with an
application to the janitorial company where they
both worked, Emma’s experience with the
Center on Self-Determination made her realize
that Lyudmila’s career options were extensive.
After meeting with Lyudmila and learning of her
strong interest in cosmetology, we arranged a
job shadow experience with a hairdresser, who
was also deaf. Encouraged by this experience,
Lyudmila decided that she wanted to pursue a
degree in cosmetology. Working with staff, she
found a school that specialized in individualized
training plans. Significant challenges persisted.
Lyudmila needed assistance with tuition and
sign language interpretation, and her parents
needed assurances that she could successfully
complete training and find employment.
The Oregon Department of Human Services
Vocational Rehabilitation Division provided
tuition assistance for Lyudmila and hired
interpreters to assist Lyudmila throughout her
training program. SE Works’ staff met with her
family, explained the opportunity and reassured
them of her potential for success. With these
challenges behind her, Lyudmila enrolled in her
training program and eventually passed the
boards with a score of 95%!
She is currently working as an
esthetician with Salon Dirk, a
teaching salon that will
encourage her on-going
professional development.
Thanks to coordinated
support, and faith invested in
her by a host of community
organizations and her family,
Lyudmila is pursuing her
dream.
Partnerships : OHSU / AFSCME Career Development Center
This year marked the end of a two year
project with the Oregon Health and Science
University (OHSU) and the American
Federation of State, County, and Municipal
Employees (AFSCME) Local 328 to create
a Career Development Center on the
hospital campus. Thanks to grant support
from the Oregon Workforce Investment
Board, SE Works’ staff assisted with
development and set-up of the career
center. The goal of the center is to provide
career advancement opportunities to entrylevel workers at OHSU.
SE Works conducted a research project that
investigated the various career
opportunities at OHSU and charted the
skills and training needed for these
positions. We identified area universities
and colleges that offered required training.
This information was compiled on a website
so that employees can develop plans for
career advancement.
Other career center resources included:
self-service tutorials on job search and
retention
a series of professional development
workshops
coaching on behavioral interviewing
techniques
The success of the career center resulted in
a commitment by OHSU to fund the center
after the grant ended.
Additionally, this innovative partnership
continues to have a positive impact on SE
Works. The accumulated knowledge
among staff about the healthcare field
proves to be valuable as we assist
customers considering careers in this
industry. SE Works also places youth in 5week internships at the OHSU Career
Center, where they develop office,
computer, and customer service skills.
“[The Career Center is] a really
excellent program, and the
personnel there are always more
than helpful. I think the whole
thing was very carefully devised
and organized, and I would like to
recommend it to everyone
interested in enhancing her or his
skills.”
- OHSU employee participant
HIGHLIGHTS
654 individuals participated in
employment, computer, or
communication based
trainings offered through the
Center. Of those
individuals, 121 chose to
attend three or more classes.
65 of the participating
employees were promoted to
new jobs.
Average Wage Increase: 11%
BUSINESS SERVICES
SE Works’ Business Services team has made
great strides in the past year. The
relationships we develop with employers are
crucial to our success, enabling us to connect
employers and job seekers. We provide
valuable resources for our business
customers by: conducting job fairs; recruiting
and pre-screening job applicants; assisting
with employee retention; supplying feedback
on company policies; and, providing
employees with the supports and training
programs they need to excel in their jobs. In
short, we offer businesses access to a
qualified workforce and services that ensure
successful job retention.
“It has been two years since we initiated a
program to pre-screen job applicants for our
delivery, warehouse and sales support
positions. Since partnering with SE Works,
we have experienced significant improvement
in many aspects of human resource
management:
Reduced turnover, safety training time
and costly errors,
Reduced safety incidents and insurance
premiums,
Overall improved performance from
newly hired employees.
SE Works has also made a difference in the
lives of many of our employees. They have
provided training in ESL, computer skills, and
general literacy, improving job performance
while enriching personal lives.
We look forward to working with the great
team at SE Works for many years to come.”
HIGHLIGHTS
SE Works hosted a job fair for
Gunderson, which attracted 450 job
seekers. Our staff pre-screened each
applicant using Gunderson’s math test,
written welding exam, and mechanical test.
Gunderson staff conducted on-site
interviews and hired many of the
candidates.
In partnership with Workforce
Connections, SE Works recruited and
screened candidates to fill 23 open
positions at LSI Logic.
SE Works staff conducted behavioral
interviewing workshops for CAPECO,
the Pendleton One Stop, and at the
Oregon Employment and Training
Association Conference.
SE Works hosted mini-job fairs for the
following companies: AT & T Wireless,
HMS Host, Foster Farms, PERS,
Pinkerton and UPS.
Jerry Frentress
Corporate Controller and HR Manager
Standard TV and Appliance
CUSTOMER PROFILE
Travis Cady was placed at Standard through
a temporary staffing service and was an
excellent employee. However, Standard
could not hire him because he did not have
the basic skills he needed to pass a
standardized assessment required of all fulltime employees. Standard asked SE Works
to assist Travis to increase his skills. Three
times a week Travis attended tutoring
sessions with Brian Obog, Youth
Development Specialist. After two months of
dedicated work, Travis successfully passed
the exam and was hired to a full-time regular
position at Standard TV & Appliance.
“Since establishing the partnership with
SE Works, the time I have had to
spend interviewing applicants has
decreased dramatically. In addition,
the quality of the applicants coming to
me has improved. The assessment
process and the testing are providing
to be a positive part of the screening
process.”
- Bill Delestatious, Delivery Manager
YOUTH PROGRAMS
Young people can take advantage of three
levels of service, depending upon their
individual needs:
Core Services — Youth seeking
employment can use the One Stop Career
Center and receive job-search assistance
from Youth Advocates.
1,375 youth came to SE Works to find jobs
SE Works youth study for the GED test
in the youth wing.
At SE Works, we attract youth who are exploring
career and life options, and planning for their
futures. With them they bring a wide variety of life
experiences, skills, interests, and challenges. We
aim to assist all young people in identifying and
maximizing their strengths and creating plans for
their futures.
Our partnership with the Center on SelfDetermination at OHSU expanded our capacity
for accomplishing this goal. The project focused
on increasing accessibility for people
experiencing disabilities. However, the changes
we made helped us improve our services for all
young people. For example, we integrated
creative teaching methods into our orientation
and training programs to address different
learning styles. This benefits every student,
regardless of ability or learning style.
In addition, the project helped us improve our
services by incorporating a “person-centered”
approach. We redesigned the career exploration
and planning process that began with the youth
completing a “self-assessment form.” Now, youth
invite their family and friends to a session at SE
Works where they share their perspectives about
the young person’s strengths and talents.
Because of this process, youth say they learn
more about themselves and are able to make
better career and education plans.
Since no two people are exactly alike, our
programs must adapt to meet different needs.
Youth Employment Program (YEP)—,
Through this program, young people attend
workshops focused on job seeking and
retention skills. Staff assist them in finding
internships or employment and provide ongoing support to ensure they are
successful in their positions.
372 youth enrolled in YEP. Of those...
248 found employment
260 participated job readiness training
Intensive Services— Finally, young
people needing specialized attention work
directly with staff. In addition to advocating
for the youth, case managers also provide
career counseling, guidance, and
assistance making life choices. Also, the
youth may participate in GED or basic skills
classes, and attend support groups (the
Eastern European Youth Group, the Young
Men’s Empowerment Group and the
Young Women’s Empowerment Group).
70 youth enrolled in Intensive Services. Of
those...
16 earned a GED or diploma
4 entered post-secondary ed
28 found employment
By fostering an environment in which people
can be themselves, we have created a space
that empowers young people to reach for their
goals.
Partnerships: Portland Community College
Last summer SE Works
hosted a graduation ceremony
and celebration for GED
graduates and their families
GED Classes at SE Works
Last year, Portland Community College
(PCC) offered four sessions of the ten-week
(120-hour) GED class at SE Works. Each
day an average of fifteen young people
gathered in our classroom to study reading,
writing, math, science and social studies.
Skilled instructors made these topics
meaningful to students who may not have
experienced success in traditional education
environments. Approximately half of those
young people also received intensive
services from SE Works’ staff, assisting them
as they addressed a range of educational,
career, or life challenges.
GED graduates entering PCC receive free
tuition during their first college term, enabling
them to use the momentum of their success
for continuing education. They are also
eligible for PCC’s “College Bound” program,
which waives tuition while students complete
their high school diplomas. Many of the
credits earned through the College Bound
program are also applied toward a college
degree.
Keynote speaker Dr. Nan Poppe, from PCC,
speaks with SE Works staff, Heidi Soderberg
and Brian Obog.
The project owes its success to a team of
dedicated people. John Matthews, Resource
Specialist at PCC, was instrumental in
creating this partnership, which is now in its
sixth year. His commitment continues. Each
week he instructs the life skills component of
the GED class. Karl Steady is in his second
year of teaching the GED program. Students
respond well to Karl’s structured environment
and clear teaching style. Since he’s been on
board, retention has increased significantly
and graduation rates have risen. Two longtime volunteers, Zack Grant and Dave
Stegemeyer, tutor students two days each
week. Collectively, they have contributed
hundreds of volunteer hours.
This partnership gives youth an opportunity
to complete their GEDs in a supportive,
community based setting. By combining the
resources from PCC and SE Works, we have
enabled students to succeed in education
and progress toward career goals.
Partnerships: Portland State University Capstone Program
Another group of Capstone students
researched employers’ current hiring
practices and trends with the limitedEnglish speaking population. The
students interviewed 180 employers in
five industries (manufacturing,
warehousing, hospitality, health care,
janitorial) to identify the major challenges
facing these workers. Key findings of this
project included:
Now in its second year, the partnership with
the Capstone Program at Portland State
University (PSU) continues to evolve.
Initially, the program began as a way to
provide individualized English as a Second
Language (ESL) instruction to our customers
who were unable to attend ESL classes.
PSU Capstone students were paired with
primarily Spanish- and Russian-speaking
customers to assist them in acquiring
language skills. Students volunteered 1,080
hours at SE Works, tutoring English
language learners. Our customers tell us
that these sessions make them feel confident
in expressing themselves to their coworkers
and employers.
In addition, these fantastic students have
taken on several major projects on behalf of
SE Works. For instance, one group of
students created a multi-media project for the
OHSU Career Center. They modified the SE
Works Behavioral Interviewing self-paced
tutorial program to accommodate limitedEnglish speakers. Using their technical
skills, they integrated a translation dictionary
so the reader can translate words into
Russian and Spanish. They also added
movies to the tutorial, demonstrating positive
and negative interviewing techniques.
80% hire limited-English speakers
73% of the jobs require basic or fluent
English
60% identified communication as the
major challenge in hiring and
retaining limited-English speakers
83% provide applications only in
English
26% offer communication classes,
but only 1 in 10 employers offer the
class materials in second languages.
Students presented their results to
approximately 50 workforce development
practitioners. SE Works and partner
organizations will use the data as we
develop new programs and strategies for
working with business customers.
SE Works is grateful to Portland State
University and the Capstone students for
their important contributions to the
community.
HIGHLIGHTS
120 Capstone Students dedicated
2,400 hours to different projects and
provided
1,080 hours of one-to-one
ESL Tutoring.
