Job Corner

Youth Employment Center

Dare to Succeed

"I didn't know what I wanted to do or where to start, but I knew I needed to get a job. The staff at Job Corner got to know me and then taught me how to get a job where I could do something I liked to do. Now, I'm getting paid to be a dance teacher for kids, and I love it! The Job Corner is also helping me finish high school soon. They really care about me achieving my goals."

- Michael, 19
