As the Justice Community Plus (JCP)
program comes to a close, Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights participants are armed
with the work readiness skills needed for their internships and future jobs...and have to gear to
show it!
 |
| Our JCP Participant Cody is ready to handle business! |
Throughout the six month course of JCP, participants get to
meet, learn, and grow together through classes and workshops focusing on their
communities, employment, and various other pro social topics and skills. However, during the second phase of JCP,
there’s a heavy focus on work readiness skills and activities to prepare our
young people to successfully venture out into the workforce.
 |
| Participants got the opportunity to visit the organization Career Gear and receive free professional clothing for interviewing and other related employment usage. |
Over the course of two months, JCP participants have
explored and participated in workshops to introduce and expand skills sets in
goal setting, resume preparation, mock interviewing, and work place
etiquette. Each participant worked
individually as well as collectively to build on their skills to get themselves
ready for their internship phase.
And like the old saying goes, once you know the part, it’s
time to look the part….
 |
| It looks like our young people are Gear’d up to tackle their futures! |
