A Visitor

TAG had a visitor at our meeting today. Samantha, a Vista Volunteer, came in and spoke about the Youth to Work program at the Ketchikan Job Center. This program is sponsored by the Ketchikan Youth Initiative (KYI), the same group who did the KYI Expo last month.

This program includes a two week set of classes that gives teens interview and job finding skills and can even work out an internship that will help a teen find a job in the field they are interested in working. Many teens are then hired by the internship provider, or the Job Center helps them find another job in their field of interest.

If you are an interested teen contact Samantha at the Job Center, the program begins Tuesday, January 29th at 3 p.m. - arrive early or call Monday if you have questions.
