Summer Youth Employment

It's that time again to apply for the NYC Summer Youth Employment Program! There are only a few days left to apply so get on it RIGHT NOW!! Go to the SYEP application page ASAP and send in your info! https://application.nycsyep.com/

The Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) provides New York City youth between the ages of 14 and 24 with summer employment and educational opportunities. In 2011, the Dept of Youth and Community Development employed 30,628 participants and placed them at 5,732 worksites.  Participants work in a variety of entry-level jobs at government agencies, hospitals, summer camps, nonprofits, small businesses, law firms, museums, sports enterprises, and retail organizations.

The Summer Youth Employment Program is designed to:

• Emphasize real-world labor expectations
• Increase awareness of services offered by local community-based organizations
• Provide opportunities for career instruction, financial literacy training, academic improvement, and social growth

If you didn't know about Summer Youth before, you do now! And you must get your application in immediately! This is a great opportunity for all students in NYC and I've heard great reviews from the several NYC public schools I've worked in, from both students, school staff, and businesses involved. Good luck!!
