They are located in 275 cities, 40 states, and 9 countries servicing thousands of individuals each year.
In 2008 ─ their first National celebration─ three awards were presented to individuals and organizations that went above and beyond in their efforts to embody Job’s for Life’s purpose to elevate the power of work to transform lives. Out of 4000 nation-wide graduates that year one of the top awards was presented to a Man of Valor, Frank Turner Jr. for the graduate of the year.

Listening to Frank’s acceptance speech at the 2008 National conference it became very clear to everyone in the room, right there in front of us was the very reason we do what we do: a life transformed! SOLI DEO GLORIA (To God Be the Glory)
