Program Description

Funded by the United Way Greater Toronto, Foundations for Youth Success is designed for youth experiencing multiple or complex barriers to education and employment. Building on activities offered through the Youth Job Connection program, it aims to equip participants with the life skills needed to successfully engage in employment or employment-readiness programs.

 

Through interactive workshops and mentorship opportunities, participants develop a stronger sense of purpose and self-confidence, begin working toward their goals, and participate more fully in their communities.

 

Workshops topics include

  • Exploring career options
  • Building or improving a resume
  • Preparing for interviews
  • Connecting with employment and volunteer opportunities
  • Exploring education and community supports
