The Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) supports older workers by providing paid, on-the-job training that helps them gain the skills and experience needed to re-enter the workforce. National Employ Older Workers Week (NEOWW) is a time to celebrate the achievements of older workers like Lillian Egbo, who have found success through SCSEP.
Lillian joined SCSEP on May 16, 2024, and began her training at the front office of the National Able Network’s Reception Desk. During this time, she focused on enhancing her phone etiquette and customer service skills. Lillian’s dedication and commitment to securing employment were clear as she worked toward her goal of finding unsubsidized work.
After just three months, Lillian’s efforts paid off when she accepted a full-time position as a Medical Office Associate with the University of Illinois at Chicago Medical Center. SCSEP played a vital role in helping her develop the skills needed to secure this role, highlighting the program’s positive impact on older workers’ lives.
As we observe NEOWW, Lillian’s story serves as a powerful reminder of how training and perseverance can lead to new opportunities. National Able Network is proud to support individuals like Lillian through SCSEP, helping them find meaningful employment and contribute to their communities.
