Temporary Staffing Services

Our main objective is to help low-income individuals who have little work experience find and retain employment.   We work one-on-one with individual clients who must overcome barriers to employment such as inadequate child care, spotty work history, low educational levels, domestic violence situations, or substance abuse issues. Our programs enable individual clients to gain the experience and skills they need to fit into today’s competitive job market. We have two programs – Phialdelphia@Work and Family Works – that help clients start on the road to self-sufficiency. 


Philadelphia@Work is a transitional jobs program designed to provide Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients with the motivation, skills, and experience they need to find and keep a full-time unsubsidized job.

Permanent Staffing Services

In response to the need for extended services, TWC began the Family Works program to help entry-level workers advance in their careers and secure a better salary. To be eligible, clients must also have gross earned income that does not exceed 235% of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines.

Through a grant from the PA Bureau of Employment and Training, Family Works provides cash incentives for retaining a job for six months longer than the Philadelphia@Work program or for obtaining a job that offers a 25% salary increase and/or benefits within six months. Participants also continue to receive transportation passes. 

In addition to cash incentives and staff support, Family Works provides participants with the opportunity to take advantage of internal and/or outside classes focusing on professional development designed to increase their overall marketability.  Family Works offers funding for:

                         •    Microsoft Office certification
                         •    Certified nursing assistant training
                         •    Security licensing   
                         •    Janitorial arts focusing on the general upkeep of electrical devices
