Jeffrey Garcia
Jeffrey Garcia began the Center for Working Families (CWF) program in March of 2013 in need of assistance with childcare and food. Caring for his children had prevented him from enrolling in a program to improve his interviewing skills. After attending coaching sessions with his career coach, Jeffrey was able to apply for a government position and through Hispanic Unity’s CWF Program. In addition, he was able to secure full-time childcare for his daughter at a very low cost, and enroll in the free FIU “Learning Skills for Life” Program.
What is his next goal? To become an agent with U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
