9/16/14 - A program is working to prepare Livingston County's future workforce by providing young adults with the learning tools it takes to be successful and advance. The Livingston County Michigan Works! Youth Advance Program helps Livingston County residents age 19 to 21 qualify for and maintain employment positions, including those who face socio-economic challenges, although that is not mandatory criteria. Youth Advance Program Coordinator Austin Turner tells WHMI theyâre hoping to reach out these residents as well as their parents and better inform them about the support programs available. The program provides educational/training opportunities, paid work experiences and internship opportunities along with skills, mentoring and community involvement to help lead individuals in different career paths or technical programs. Those interested are asked to contact Turner at (517) 552-2153 or awturner@rossprov.com. A link to the programâs Facebook page is also provided below. (JM)
