Meet
Jakeria
Jakeria’s journey with Alabama Goodwill began through the Good Jobs Challenge, a healthcare workforce training initiative that Alabama Goodwill delivered with funding support from the Women’s Foundation of Alabama. She came to the program because she wanted more out of life, and a brighter future for herself and her daughter.
Through Goodwill’s training, coaching, and encouragement, Jakeria earned her program completion certificate and secured a position as a Patient Care Technician in the Intensive Cardiovascular Unit at UAB Hospital.
Goodwill didn’t just help her find a job — it helped her build a career, and a brighter future for her family.
