Hands-on job readiness program

Our Youth Job Readiness training program provides refugee and newly-arrived immigrant youth ages 15-18 with employment skills. Participants will learn practical skills such as, resume building, financial literacy, practice mock interviews, and learn about on-the-job etiquette through internships at Beautiful Day and other community partners.

OUR IMPACT

To date, we’ve worked with nearly 120 refugees representing 14 nationalities and 20 ethnicities, including many with no first-language literacy. We offer training for both refugee adults and youth at multiple levels, though our priority is those facing the most significant job-entry barriers.

Almost all of our staff are themselves former refugees who understand the challenges. Over 70% of our graduates move on to permanent jobs, providing for their families, contributing to the economy and enriching their communities with their determination and resilience.
