City of Seattle Employment
The Seattle Jobs Initiative (SJI) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting individuals from under-invested communities in building sustainable careers through equitable workforce systems and impactful partnerships. Established in 1997, SJI addresses structural racism by combining job-skills training with essential wraparound services to connect low-income individuals with living-wage employment opportunities.
In collaboration with various stakeholders, SJI focuses on creating innovative programs that promote workforce equity, including initiatives in green infrastructure, cybersecurity, and healthcare employment. Their mission is to break long-term cycles of poverty by empowering individuals with the skills and resources necessary for career advancement in Seattle's dynamic labor market.
