When we invest in our youth,
we invest in the future.
As a residential program, Job Corps offers someone transitioning out of foster care the opportunity to train for a career in one of the nation’s fastest-growing industries, such as health care, construction and renewable resources.
With support from our instructors, career counselors and staff members, students can finish their high school education, complete career training, learn employability skills and work with a career counselor to find a job after graduation—all for free.
While they’re preparing for their future, students will have a safe place to sleep, nutritious meals to fuel them throughout the day and a regular allowance.
