Youth Job Connection

A New Amazing Initiative!

Trenton, Belleville, Napanee and Picton Career Edge locations are helping the youth in our communities achieve long-term employment, meaningful careers, and success in their future working lives.

Wouldn’t you like this for yourself?

If you are:

15 to 29 years old at the time of registration in the program
A resident of Ontario
Eligible to work in Canada
Unemployed
Not participating in full-time training or education, as defined by the institution

Please Note: Individuals who are 15-18 years old must be legally excused from attending high school.

Youth Job Connection has two components:

A year-round component with intensive employment supports for youth who experience multiple barriers to employment.
A summer component with summer job opportunities and part-time job placements during the school year to help multi-barriered high school students, aged 15 to 18, make positive educational and career choices.

Imagine:

Pre-employment services
Job matching, placement and incentives
Education and work transition support

and

There is no cost for this program!

Congratulations to our latest YJC Graduates!
