That is the message class of 2023 Young Professional, Jolindah M., had for her fellow interns at the start of their internship year. Genesys Works knows it is true, and as our supporters, we know you do too. Our programming is providing access to possibilities for these young people. And you can too!
Black and African American, Latino/a and Hispanic, and Indigenous people and women are underrepresented in the technology sector nationwide. However, technology jobs can be a fit for various personalities and interests and provides sustainable, high-paying careers. Through our program, youth invest in their professional growth by committing to an eight-week professional and technical summer skills training, a paid technology-related internship with local major companies during the school year (around 20 hours/week), post-high school preparation and planning, and college and career success toward their first job.
Genesys Works students learn about new careers, build their technical skills that make them competitive talent, and grow their confidence and vision for themselves. Will you join us in continuing invest in young people’s futures?
