In collaboration with the New York City Department of Education (DOE), Department of Youth and Community Development, and William Cullen Bryant High School, Global Kids will run a Summer Youth Employment Program focused on service learning and job training and placement for 12-18 years old youth. The School-Based SYEP model is designed to strengthen connections between academic learning and summer career exploration, while providing youth with summer employment and educational experiences. This program will engage the talents and interests of youth, develop their skills and competencies, provide positive adult role models, and give young people work opportunities.
