We’re so proud of Illiana! 💙

It’s wonderful to see her take the skills she gained through TeenWORKS and put them into action at Garden Valley Retirement Village. We can’t wait to see all she accomplishes through this experience! 👏✨

TeenWORKS in Garden City has officially wrapped up its second year! 🚀✨

TeenWORKS is an instructor-led program that prepares youth ages 14–16 for the workforce by teaching workplace readiness and helping them develop valuable skills for future employment. Participants received a stipend while attending the six-week program of 54 hours, where they built social and professional skills through interactive workshops, career exploration, and hands-on experiences using VR headsets.

In addition to learning about future career opportunities, participants also gave back to the community by helping collect trash and beautify local areas. They created vision boards and shared their goals. The youth enjoyed decorating kindness rocks and sharing them throughout the campus to spread kindness and brighten others' days. Youth receive a certificate of completion at the end of the program.

We extend our sincere thanks to Garden City Community College for the use of its beautiful campus and to Turning Point Church of the Nazarene for providing transportation throughout the program.

A special thank you also goes to the local businesses that welcomed our youth with tours and career exploration opportunities, as well as to the guest speakers who took the time to share their knowledge and experiences. Your support helped make this year's TeenWORKS program a meaningful and successful experience for our youth!
