Good Jobs and Equity
MyJourney Career Success Workshops
As a Results for America-funded Good Jobs and Equity Project grantee, CSTB recognizes the dramatic impact possible when individuals have an opportunity for equitable, high-quality employment. In partnership with Results for America and the Families and Workers Fund, CSTB developed a job quality framework that helps job seekers identify opportunities that best fit their needs and helps employers recruit and retain top talent. Four pillars guide our framework: Pay and Benefits, Career Training and Advancement, Workplace Culture and Environment, and Employee and Family Support. Resources for individuals include guidance on assessing opportunities for job quality and identifying employers who meet these criteria. Employer resources include an Employer Toolkit with assessments, events, webinars, workshops, updated job order form to include additional data on quality frameworks, surveys, and a Good Jobs Dashboard scorecard regarding alignment and measurement with the Good Jobs principles.
Developed by CSTB and held in partnership with Hillsborough County Schools and the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, MyJourney Career Success Workshops educate, engage and motivate high school youth to take control of their career journey toward a living wage, upwardly mobile career. Each workshop consists of multiple sessions that cover career exploration, career planning, career barrier navigation, and job readiness. The curriculum is based on youth success research and storytelling techniques. In 2024, MyJourney Career Success Workshops were conducted in over twenty Hillsborough County public high schools and at five Department of Juvenile Justice residential facilities located in Hillsborough County.
The goal for this project is to create a sustainable, impactful, no cost focus on quality jobs within the WIOA system.
