Jobs for Progress, Inc.
A group of Corporations came together to support SER Metro-Detroit’s education program aimed at raising the skill level of older
youth from low income communities so they can move into GED Preparation and earn the GED Credential that will allow them to
qualify for post secondary education or training and better compete for a job. Among the Amigos sponsoring this important project
were Chrysler, Comerica, DTE Energy, the Detroit Newspaper Partnership, Ford, and the Myron P. Leven Foundation. The
outcomes of this program were exceptional with more than 150 individuals served and more than 80% increasing their skills by a 2
grade levels minimum.
