Dress for Success Orillia and Barrie’s Breakfast Club program is starting up in Orillia on April 25.

Breakfast Club is a free, nine-week program for unemployed or under-employed women and non-binary individuals who are looking for work and need support.

The program is designed to assist clients by addressing obstacles to employment in a friendly, non-judgmental group setting, keeping clients motivated to continue their job search.
