About Chrysalis Center

Mission: Chrysalis serves people navigating barriers to the workforce by offering a job-readiness program, individualized supportive services, and paid transitional employment. We empower our clients on their pathway to stability, security, and fulfillment in their work and lives. Program: Chrysalis empowers individuals to overcome their barriers and prepare for, attain, and retain employment. Whether a client comes in with specific ambitions in mind or never having considered what their professional journey might look like, staff and volunteers provide them with individualized support during every phase of their job search. Throughout the program, clients learn to identify their strengths and set goals; creating plans for accomplishing them and building the skills needed to do so. We provide numerous resources, including case management, job-readiness curriculum, resume preparation, practice interviews, access to computers, professional attire, and support groups. Our philosophy is that a steady job is the single most important step in a person’s transition out of poverty and onto a pathway to long-term self-sufficiency. Chrysalis’ core program provides structure and support to promote client success while fostering clients’ ability to make individual choices in pursuit of their goals. Transitional Jobs Program: Since 1991, Chrysalis Enterprises has provided transitional jobs for our clients with the greatest barriers to gaining employment; providing them with the chance to build real-world skills, confidence, and develop necessary work experience. These programs provide street, highway, and building maintenance, as well as janitorial, warehouse, front desk, and general staffing solutions to 100+ communities and businesses across L.A. and Orange Counties. Centers: Chrysalis operates centers that are located where homelessness and poverty are most pervasive: on Skid Row in Downtown Los Angeles, Santa Monica, the SFV, OC, and Inland Empire.
