The LA youth at Work program trains youth (16-24 years of age) to become work ready. The youth we work with go through a Job Skills Workshop (JSW) and a Work Readiness Certification (WRC). Once the youth pass both workshops they are classified as work ready and earn a Work Readiness Certificate. This work readiness Certificate, gives them access to job openings that our partners are offering ONLY to our Work Ready Certificated youth.
To volunteer please register at;

You may volunteer at a WRC session, as an interviewer. To volunteer for an upcoming WRC please RSVP at;

To volunteer at a JSW event, you must become a certified facilitator first. To become a certified facilitator you must attend one of our Train the trainer sessions, where you will learn about our curriculum and process to host your own Job Skills Workshop (JSW) and Work Readiness Certification (WRC). If you wish to attend please email me your phone number and what is the best time to call you.
If you would like to become a partner or have any other questions, please contact me.
