While the Summer Youth Employment and Learning Program is delayed – we do have GOOD NEWS that state officials have confirmed the funds for this program and it will likely be kept intact and the new start date will be July 11th.
We are grateful to the State of Connecticut, the City of Hartford, the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving and to other leveraged funders that support this very important initiative.
Nearly 2,000, 14 – 19 year olds throughout the North Central Connecticut region have been assigned to work using State and leveraged funds, to build their career competencies and to engage in paid work experiences at hundreds of private sector businesses and non-profit organizations throughout the region.
This should be a great summer for these summer interns, and the businesses that will benefit.
