ParentJobNet

I attended a Parent meeting a few days ago regarding Gifted and Talented programs in the NYC area. I saw a sign with a website and got curious. Its called ParentJobNet and its a non-profit organization aimed at helping parents connect with job and other opportunities.

Below is from their website's about page:

preparation program for parents and caregivers. A 501(c)3 non-profit organization, ParentJobNet is based in and operated by NYC parents. It supports parents in their everyday professional and personal life situations.
