Referring Agencies

All clients served by Suit Yourself are referred by pre-approved social service agencies, churches, educational institutions, non-profit organizations and government institutions. If your organization is interested in becoming a referring agency, please click here for an application or click here to contact us.
To qualify for services, a client must have a job interview scheduled or must be participating in a job/career fair.

Qualified clients receive a first- and second-interview outfit, and upon acceptance of a job offer, receive five additional outfits. An outfit consists of an entire ensemble to make a positive impression (clothing, shoes and accessories).

Clothing assistance can also be provided for jobs that require specific uniforms.
