Description

In our signature program, Let’s Paint!, currently approximately 25 middle school teens are participating in a beautification project at Burns Latino Community School while receiving workforce readiness training. We use commercial painting as our vehicle to teach the soft skills students need to succeed in school and in the workforce.

We’ve already completed projects on Pope Park Highway and at the Boys and Girls Club of Hartford. Check them out below. The CCEA is excited to help inspire teens to have a sense pride in themselves, their school, and their community in these exciting projects.

Consider getting involved! Every other Saturday (while projects are running), we invite individuals and teams to share a few hours painting with the students, so our students can practice their soft skills and learn about other professions.

Each Tuesday, we also invite corporate or other teams who can take a few hours out of their work or school day to paint side-by-side with our students to share their professions and how school helped facilitate where they are today.
