I'm a YES: Youth Employment Supporter - MassHire Central Workforce Development Board

#YES4Worcester! Be a Youth Employment Supporter: Here are two ways you can help Worcester youth secure summer employment.

1) Hire youth to fill seasonal needs. The Worcester Community Action Council will connect you with workforce ready youth who can add value from day one. Placements are short-term, structured, and supported.

2) Sponsor a youth summer job. For just $3,200, your business can sponsor a six-week summer placement for a young person at one of more than 50+ Worcester nonprofits that serve and enrich our community every day. Your sponsorship funds a young person at a job, giving them critical early work experience and advancing nonprofits’ community-building work.
