A job offers the independence that comes with a paycheck, increases self-esteem, and breaks the cycle of poverty. Itrsquo;s a philosophy that we have been following in North Florida since 1940, when our local organization was founded as one of a growing number of independent non-profit affiliates of what is now Goodwill Industries International. Today, Goodwill Industries is the nationrsquo;s largest private provider of training and employment services for people with disabilities and special needs. And our local organization has grown into one of Goodwillrsquo;s top performers in placing people into employment./ppbr/ppResponsible fornbsp;assisting the Store Manager in the storersquo;s daily
