Your Next Opportunity Could Start Here.
Explore employment, training, mentorship, business, education and community opportunities that can help you move forward.
It can be a new skill, a mentor, a training program, a business connection, an internship, a project or the chance to help build something meaningful.
REACH brings those possibilities together.
Opportunity becomes useful when you can act on it.
REACH is being built to make practical opportunities easier to discover, understand and pursue.
Some opportunities will come directly through REACH. Others may come from employers, schools, training providers, community organizations, businesses, professionals or other trusted sources.
What kind of opportunity are you looking for?
You can explore one pathway or several.
Jobs & Careers
Employment opportunities, career pathways and connections that may help you take the next step professionally.
Training & Education
Courses, certifications, workshops and learning opportunities connected to practical skills.
Internships & Apprenticeships
Ways to gain experience, develop skills and learn directly through real-world work.
Mentorship
Connections with people willing to share knowledge, experience and practical guidance.
Business Opportunities
Connections, projects, customers, vendors and opportunities for entrepreneurs and small businesses.
Technology
Technology learning, digital projects and pathways into technology-related skills and careers.
Youth Opportunities
Learning, mentorship, career exposure and experiences that help young people explore their future.
Community Projects
Meaningful ways to participate in local projects, neighborhood improvement and community action.
Volunteer Opportunities
Defined opportunities to contribute time, knowledge or skills to a real community need.
Start by connecting local people with local possibilities.
REACH begins in Kingston, Luzerne County and Northeastern Pennsylvania.
One of our goals is to make it easier for people to discover opportunities that already exist around them while helping local employers and organizations reach people who may be a good fit.
People gain better access to jobs, learning and experience.
Businesses and organizations gain better access to local talent, skills, volunteers and community connections.
Find it. Understand it. Take the next step.
An opportunity should be understandable before someone spends time pursuing it.
Discover
Find an opportunity connected to your interests or goals.
Understand
Review who it is for, what it involves and what is required.
Prepare
Identify skills, documents or preparation needed to pursue it.
Act
Apply, connect, register or take the appropriate next step.
Find work—and understand the path toward better work.
REACH wants employment opportunities to be more than a list of job titles.
Where possible, useful opportunity information should help people understand what employers are looking for and how they can become stronger candidates.
- Local job openings
- Entry-level opportunities
- Career-track positions
- Apprenticeships
- Internships
- Employer hiring events
- Training connected to employment
- Career preparation resources
Build the skills that open doors.
Sometimes the opportunity you want requires another step first.
That may be a certification, trade skill, digital skill, workshop, course or hands-on learning experience.
Courses
Structured learning for practical knowledge and skills.
Certifications
Credentials that may support employment or career advancement.
Hands-On Training
Develop skills through practice and real-world application.
Sometimes the opportunity is a conversation.
Connecting with someone who has already worked in an industry, built a business or developed a skill can help make an unfamiliar path easier to understand.
REACH may help connect appropriate mentors and participants around defined goals.
Career exploration, business questions, technical learning, professional development, project guidance and understanding what a particular path actually requires.
Opportunity can also mean building something of your own.
Entrepreneurs and small businesses need more than general advice.
They need customers, vendors, projects, knowledge, technology, talent and useful relationships.
- Local contracting opportunities
- Vendor connections
- Small-business collaborations
- Mentorship
- Business education
- Technology support
- Community project opportunities
- Professional connections
Young people should be able to see what is possible.
Exposure matters.
A young person may not know an occupation, trade, technology field or entrepreneurial path exists until someone gives them the opportunity to experience it.
- Career exploration
- Skills workshops
- Mentorship
- Technology learning
- Internships where appropriate
- Project-based experiences
- Entrepreneurship exposure
- Educational opportunities
Have an opportunity to share?
REACH is also for organizations, employers, businesses and community groups that have something meaningful to offer.
That might be a job opening, apprenticeship, internship, course, mentorship opportunity, community project, volunteer role or another legitimate pathway.
Not every offer belongs on REACH.
As the opportunity network develops, REACH should prioritize opportunities that are legitimate, understandable and reasonably aligned with community benefit.
Listing an opportunity should never be interpreted as a guarantee of employment, acceptance, compensation or results.
- Clear organization or provider
- Understandable requirements
- Accurate description
- Transparent compensation when applicable
- Appropriate age requirements
- No misleading promises
- No requests for unnecessary sensitive information
- Clear way to pursue the opportunity
A community opportunity board is part of the vision.
As verified opportunities become available, this page can evolve into a searchable place to discover what is currently open.
Opportunities will be added as they become available and can be appropriately presented. REACH will not fabricate listings simply to make the board appear full.
Your goal can still be the starting point.
The opportunity you need may not be listed yet—or it may require a different pathway.
Tell REACH what you’re trying to accomplish and we can work from the goal rather than forcing you to choose from a list.
A listing isn’t the impact.
Where appropriate, REACH wants to understand what happens after an opportunity is shared.
Did someone apply? Complete training? Gain experience? Find work? Make a business connection?
Following outcomes can help us understand which opportunities are useful and where additional preparation or community support may be needed.
What opportunity are you looking for?
A job. A skill. A mentor. Training. A business connection. A chance to contribute. Start with what you’re trying to accomplish.
