| Raul Diaz-Curiel |
 “I have been enrolled in the WIA program for two years. During my first year I was given the opportunity to get a work experience through the City of Live Oak, where I was able to gain valuable work skills. In my second year I was placed at La Mexicana where I have learned time management and customer service skills, and was recently just hired. I am currently attending Butte College and I needed money for school expenses, and without this program it would’ve have been difficult to further my education. I highly recommend this program to any seniors in high school who are seeking and having difficulties finding a job.”

 “The program helped me to learn how to do things faster and better. The One Stop counselor helped me get a job. They were nice and helpful and explained everything. If I didn’t know how to do something they would show me how to do it. This job gave me more confidence and I also learned leadership skills. I learned how the store was run and what they have to do. I really like this program. They got me a job fast and one that I liked.”

"My experience with the One Stop program has been wonderful. Through the program I learned how to properly fill out an application for a job. I did a mock interview which was also very helpful to learn the different types of questions anyone could be asked for a job and lastly I learned how to do a resume. I did the job training program and that was very helpful. The reason why is because now I’m employed!! I love the program and am very satisfied with it."

| Raul Diaz-Curiel |
Raul has been a participant in the WIA program for two years. He recently graduated from Live Oak High School, and will be furthering his education at Butte Community College. Raul did not have transportation to and from work, therefore any work experience needed to be done near his home. Both times we were able to find him a job within walking distance, the first at the City of Live Oak and the second at La Mexicana Deli. Raul was recently hired at La Mexicana Deli, and this was because of his self motivation and great work ethics. Not only was Raul eager to work, but was always willing to go to any workshops we had to offer. At One Stop we were able to assist Raul with building his resume, writing requests for letters of recommendation, and giving him the resources to maintain a good work ethic. |

| Erid came to the One Stop because he had never worked before. He was hoping to gain experience that would help him to secure a job in the future. Erid is very interested in working in retail, so he was given a placement at Factory-2-U. Erid found that his placement was very beneficial. He gained leadership skills and now has the confidence to apply for jobs on his own. Great job Erid! |
| Ruth Rivera Montanes |

She recently graduated from Yuba City High and has been hired at the Fashion Bug in the Mall, she is enrolled at Yuba College and plans on starting in the fall. She indicates she loves her job so much, she leaves half her paycheck there (she loves the clothes also). We are so proud of all that Ruth has accomplished in such a short time and look forward to her future achievements. |
