A workshop for formerly homeless women will offer free makeovers to participants to help them prepare for job interviews.
The seven-year-old workshop offers life-skills development and training to help homeless women turn their lives around and find jobs and housing.
The Junior League of Los Angeles, in conjunction with Pacheco Salon, are helping make the transition easier by offering free makeovers to more than 20 women participating in a life skills building program at Chrysalis.
The workshop is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 25 at 6:30 p.m. at Pacheco Salon in Santa Monica and will help the women learn how to apply appropriate makeup for a job interview.
The collaboration includes two seven-week workshops for formerly homeless women living in shelters and working with Chrysalis to find jobs and housing.
Chrysalis is a non-profit organization in Santa Monica dedicated to helping economically disadvantaged and homeless individuals become self-sufficient through employment opportunities. For more information, call Chrysalis at (310) 392-4117.
