Goodwill is proud to recognize [National Employ Older Workers Week](https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/seniors/national-employ-older-workers-week), a commemorative week to acknowledge the contributions and achievements of older workers. Older workers not only bring years of skill, experience, and work ethic to their jobs; they’re also becoming a greater part of the workforce. As of 2022, [the older adult population was increasing at over five times the rate of the younger population in central Indiana](https://centralindiana.stateofaging.org/report-data/demographics/) alone.

When Jefferson Jones applied for Goodwill of Central and Southern Indiana’s Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP), he didn’t quite know what he would be getting into. Jefferson knew that SCSEP partnered with nonprofits and worked with people like himself in his community. However, he didn’t know how much he would love this new training opportunity.
