Jodie Rasch

Jodie Rasch, Manager of the Career Gateway and 50+ Employment Expos, began her career in employment law. After eight years working with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and some time as a full-time mom, Jodie was looking to re-enter the workforce. An item on a listserv led her to JCA’s Career Gateway. Little did she know that this would be a life-altering decision! The Career Gateway gave Jodie the confidence she needed to pursue her next career move. It just so happened that around the time that she was completing the program, the director was retiring, and the Career Gateway had an opening for new leadership. Jodie was a perfect fit and became the director of the program three weeks after graduating. She has seen other graduates go on to secure good jobs, with several being hired at JCA like she was.
