🤝 I'm thrilled I was able to provide $20,000 through a grant from my office to Coach Carmen's Mission Accomplished Transition Services, Inc., and present it at their Creative Teen Showcase!
Mission Accomplished's Teen Institutes, programs for 16 to 18-year-olds, are designed for those exploring careers in construction and design, or in fashion and beauty, with a focus on elevating the voices of disadvantaged youth.
Experience in a teen's industry of choice through either a Capital Region of NY-based Career and Technical Education program or self-teaching is required, creating pipelines for students and employers alike.
Founder and Chief Coach Carmen has made it her life's mission to assist every young person navigating this program, and those who complete the program in finding summer employment after the completion of their internships.
Thank you, Coach Carmen, for the work you do every day in our communities.
