   About the Position

Impact Statement
Research shows that youth who participate in career guidance activities experience lower levels of unemployment, earn higher wages and are happier in their careers as adults, especially when they connect directly with members of the workforce. By guiding youth to make informed decisions about their future, we strengthen our community’s workforce and wellbeing.

Description
Many students can't envision a future they haven't seen. Your story—regardless of your industry or title—can be the spark that changes a student's trajectory.
You aren't just giving a talk; you’re investing in the strength of our community by showing a young person their options.

Multiple dates & times are available. You can let us know which one works best for you!
