Focused on high risk young adults ages 16 to 24, this program assists participants with completing their high school diploma or equivalency and obtaining paid work experience in a career field of their interest to increase employability. Many participants are former foster youth with other participants including parenting youth who are parenting, basic skills deficient, with a disability, or English language learners. This program is run in partnership with Folsom Cordova Unified School District’s Adult Education and funded by federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act through the Sacramento Employment and Training Agency.
