CareerCare is a weekly support group established to help those individuals who are out of work, seeking a job transition, needing career advice, or in the process of a career change. Career Care teaches individuals how to fish—teaching them skills that will last a lifetime. They are provided the tools and resources to help themselves now and in the future to deal with change successfully.  Volunteers are available to assist with resumés, interviewing, life inventory, career direction and other areas to assist individuals with their journey. There is no fee to participate, and no pre-registration is necessary to attend. We meet every Monday evening from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. in Room 127. Use the entrance and lot on the northwest corner of Mira Vista and West Plano Parkway. Come visit our Monday Night Support Group!
