This summer, 12 community-based organizations across Redwood City and North Fair Oaks opened their doors to create meaningful job opportunities for local youth. But these numbers only tell part of the story. Behind every placement was a community Partner willing to invest in a young person, provide mentorship, build their skills, and help them see themselves as leaders in their community. From the application process in April to youth orientation in June and job placements throughout the summer, our partners played a critical role in making these opportunities possible. We are incredibly grateful to the organizations that made space for our youth and trusted them to contribute to the important work happening in our communities.
To our 12 community-based partners: Thank you for saying “yes” to youth in our community. Your investment goes beyond a summer job, you are helping young people build confidence, develop professional skills, explore careers in public service, and see the impact they can make in their own communities.
Thank you for Senator Josh Beck, District 4 Supervisor Lisa Guathier, and Redwood City Council for recognizing the youth this past month!
