About the event
If students have not had a job before the summer of their senior year, Vocational Rehabilitation has created a program called the Summer Work Experience. Students will have a paid internship for twenty hours a week for six weeks over the summer. This includes 4 hours a week of employability skills training sessions as well as a job coach at the work sites. Having a paid work experience is a strong indicator of whether the student will be successful in finding competitive employment after high school.
