Enrichment
Enrichment is paid professional development days that were incorporated into the Summer Youth Employment Program in 2015. During enrichment sessions, youth are exposed to several activities that prepare them to think critically about their personal endeavors, and professional goals.
The following topics that will be covered include:
- Planning for after High School & Post-Secondary
- Health & Wellness
- Financial Literacy and Education
- Career Explorations
Youth Employees will have the opportunity to participate in workshops with different organizations and professionals. This year, Enrichment will be the first week of the program: July 10th - July 14th.
