Job description: WIOA/SNAP JETS Case Manager (Part-Time)Preferred application deadline: April 15, 2025Location: Philadelphia, PA (Hybrid)About UsOur country's education and workforce systems are inequitable, failing to meet the needs of our most marginalized citizens. Historically, workforce education has led to low-wage jobs disconnected from ongoing higher education, which has created significant barriers for career advancement. At the same time, traditional higher education has increasingly become unaffordable for Americans from lower-income backgrounds while also lacking direct connection to the labor market. The consequences of these systemic failures are dire.At Propel America, we believe a better system should and can exist.
