Intern & Earn gives participants the opportunity to develop employment readiness skills and connect to job opportunities. Workshops are offered year-round on topics including how to complete job applications, interview techniques, resume development, financial education, social media do’s and don’ts, and exploring opportunities for post-secondary education. We also host hiring events and employer recruitments, featuring many youth-friendly employers. Youths who are receiving CalWORKs benefits (ages 16-18) and are current or former foster youth (ages 16-24) are eligible for year-round employment services.
Paid internships are available, and eligible youth will have the opportunity to be placed in an eight-week paid internship, working up to 30 hours per week and earning $18.75 per hour. Positions are available across the county, and interns will be placed in a position which aligns with their interests and career goals. Interns will receive support from an Employment Counselor, including guidance and coaching, with regular check-ins.
