Our AmeriCorps members not only focus on imparting work skills, but also on building the life and social skills necessary to mitigate other barriers to success.
Upon completion of our on-the-job training program, youth get assistance with transitioning into unsubsidized longer-term employment opportunities.
Choice AmeriCorps members and staff work to build relationships with employers to help link youth with opportunities to flourish in the local workforce. We continue to offer guidance and support, as needed, to ease youth into their new settings.
