Mayor Roland Velasco cuts the ribbon at the new Goodwill work center.

GOOD ON YA Gilroy’s remodeled Goodwill store at 856 First St. not only looks like a Ross or Marshall’s but has the first free employment service station in Silicon Valley to help people find jobs. The WORKCONNECT Employment Resource Center opened June 9 and Mayor Roland Velasco cut the ribbon in front of a packed house. The center will have full time staff and will give free employment workshops, online job search training, job training, resume help and offers a computer lab. The center is open weekdays 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. but closed from noon to 1 p.m. for lunch.
