Rose Clark, Supported Employment Senior Program Manager
I believe that everyone who wants to work and can work should and I am here to try and make that happen. I have worked at Goodwill since 2005. When I started, we had 2 clients and I provided all services such as supported employment with both of them. Now we have grown so much and offer so many wonderful services for those that want to work. I have always felt very strongly about employment for our participants and as we have grown, it has become my main focus to help the participants reach their goals.

Hi everyone, thanks for visiting our website. I’ve worked for Goodwill of Wyoming for 20 years ( 9 of those as CEO) and am proud to be a part of this wonderful organization. My background is in rehabilitation services and that’s been a huge help in our efforts to use our retail stores to provide worksites for people with disabilities. As an organization we are committed to utilizing donated items that are sold in our stores to benefit the people of Wyoming. Be assured that when you donate and shop at Goodwill of Wyoming, revenues stay in Wyoming and are focused on services and supports for people in need.

Heya! I’ve officially been with Goodwill for 2.5 years, but have helped with Goodwill’s technology needs for a number of years. I’ve worked with technology since I was a young teen due to my father’s influence and career, and have continued that tradition throughout my own career. I’m an IT guy through and through. From networking and security to pushing Goodwill as a whole to new technologies, I am here to help Goodwill better serve our community and support our services!
