Program Description: The Youth Job Connection: Summer (YJCS) offers intensive supports beyond traditional job search and placement opportunities, tailored to meet individual needs. However, it is designed specifically to support high school students, aged 15 to 18, who are facing challenging life circumstances and may need support transitioning between school and work. While YJCS placements are expected to take place during the summer months, service providers can help eligible youth with part-time placements outside of school hours during the school year.
