The Work Ready Plus program provides evidence-based workforce development programming to teens and then places teens in paid internships in local Clubs sites or the community to gain on-the-job experience.
Through hands-on training in diverse industries, from customer service to tech, we provide teens with real-world experience and practical skills. We also offer personalized resume workshops and coaching on interview techniques and professional etiquette, ensuring they are well-prepared and confident for their future careers.
We facilitate interactive workshops and practical exercises so teens gain the knowledge to make informed financial decisions, set achievable goals, and develop habits that foster long-term financial stability. Teens also build confidence in managing their finances effectively, preparing them for a successful financial future.
Our program offers paid internships for teens, giving them hands-on experience and professional skills while earning money. These opportunities provide real-world exposure and mentorship, helping teens build their resumes and prepare for future career success.
We offer school and college tours for teens, providing them with firsthand insights into academic environments and campus life. These tours help students explore educational opportunities, envision their future, and make informed decisions about their educational paths.
