Youth Works Applications Being Accepted
BerkshireWorks Career Center is now accepting applications for Youth Works Year Round 2015.
The Youth Works Program provides 100 hours of paid work experience to eligible Pittsfield youth. It provides an opportunity for young people to gain work readiness skills, build healthy relationships, and provides support for youth in the workplace. When the youth complete the program, they earn their work readiness and job safety credential. Also, youth get paid while learning these valuable skills and gaining experience that can be put on their resume.
BerkshireWorks Career Center is now accepting applications for this program. The deadline is Friday, Feb. 6.
Youth who are between the ages of 16-21, who are no longer enrolled in high school and/or have graduated from high school, are highly encouraged to apply. If you attend Pittsfield public schools, please contact Tammy Gage at 413-499-9567.
The application can be found on the website and must be fully completed. Space is limited in the Youth Works program, and additional eligibility documentation is required. If documentation is not submitted or is incomplete, the youth will not be accepted into the program.
