Workforce Development

Empowering People. Building Careers. Strengthening Communities.

At Community Counseling and Intervention Services (CCIS), we believe that investing in people is one of the most powerful ways to strengthen communities. Workforce development is about more than finding employment—it's about creating opportunities for individuals to gain knowledge, develop skills, build confidence, and pursue meaningful careers that positively impact their lives and the communities they serve.

Through education, training, mentorship, and professional development, CCIS is committed to preparing a skilled, compassionate workforce equipped to meet the evolving needs of California's behavioral health and human services systems.
