Help Shape the ASCEND Youth Employment Program


 

We’re excited to invite representation from your organization to a roundtable discussion to help shape CSCNL’s new youth employment program, Achieving Success through Community ENgagement & Development (ASCEND).

Date: Thursday, January 16

Time: 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM

Location: CSCNL Boardroom, 25 Anderson Avenue, St. John’s

ASCEND is an innovative program designed to support NEET youth (aged 15-30, not in employment, education, or training) by placing them with community sector organizations like yours for fully subsidized 19-21 week work placements. Before these placements begin, participants will undergo two weeks of career and personal development training to ensure they’re well-prepared to contribute meaningfully to your team.

This roundtable is your opportunity to:

  • Share your organization’s needs and insights on youth employment programs.
  • Influence the design of ASCEND to ensure it’s employer-informed and impactful.
  • Learn how your organization can participate as a host employer.

 

Your feedback will be invaluable in shaping a program that benefits both the youth participants and community sector organizations across Newfoundland and Labrador.

We hope you can join us to explore how ASCEND can help your organization while providing meaningful opportunities for youth in Atlantic Canada. Register soon, as space is limited!

Thank you for your commitment to supporting youth and strengthening our community sector.
