Clothing Collaborative for Job Trainees

Launched in 1999, the Clothing Collaborative for Job trainees makes available “professional” clothing to male and female job seekers who participate in Boston-based job training and placement programs to assist them in their efforts to obtain and retain meaningful employment. Clothing is provided free of charge.

The Clothing Collaborative creates an opportunity, through wardrobe seminars scheduled throughout the year, for job training graduates to learn the basics of dressing appropriately for work. Graduates are also able to choose career attire for job interviews or work. Work-appropriate clothing—displayed at clothing seminars—is supplied through clothing drives hosted by local corporations and organizations throughout the year.

Participants from other training programs in the Boston area are invited to participate.
