In the face of a job market that underestimates senior workers, AWARE at Positive Maturity provides employment services to adults aged 50 and older. While many seniors are negatively affected by the economic downturn and need additional income despite retirement, AWARE succeeds in matching older adults with employment opportunities that meet their personal needs and interests.

Services include:

• Job seeking
• Resume writing
• Interview coaching
• Computer skills instruction
• Biannual job fairs throughout Jefferson and Shelby counties

Applicants must be 50 years or older and may schedule an appointment with a job counselor in either Jefferson or Shelby county. Employers may place a job order with AWARE through the phone, fax, or e-mail. Positive Maturity adopted the AWARE program in 1976. In its first two years, AWARE placed 330 adults in full- or part-time jobs.
