Philly Future Track offers work experience to young adults

The city has announced the launch of a new program called Philly Future Track, which will provide job skills training and real-world work experience to 130 young adults in Philadelphia.

Using service as a strategy to build civic and environmental stewardship, Philly Future Track will provide individuals with a paid position involving community service and other life and career building skills during a six-month period.

The program will provide a temporary employment opportunity to participants who will assist with cleaning and beautification projects in key areas throughout Philadelphia. The program is designed to be a career readiness pipeline, providing the participants with enough resources and education to transition into full time employment, attend a 2 or 4 year higher education institution, enter into a vocational training program/school or be prepared to take the military aptitude test.

The program is still seeking participants. If interested, visit here for more information and to learn how to apply.
