INTERNSHIPS

City Youth Now's Internship Program provides stipends and other support, as needed, to help youth in the juvenile justice system receive a little extra guidance and job training.

A supervising adult agrees to find an appropriate internship placement for the youth; provides them with training, supervision and additional support, as needed; and when possible, helps them to find permanent employment.

City Youth Now provides a limited stipend upon completion of the program. Last year, over 100 youth participated in our Internship Program.

At the end of the program, the youth are required to submit a resume, a cover letter, a letter of recommendation from their supervisor and participate in a mock interview at our office.

It is our hope that these youth will be better prepared to successfully transition out of the juvenile justice system.
