Aiken Youth Empowerment

Career Readiness Progam

Aiken Youth Empowerment is recruiting youth to participate in our Career Readiness program. Youth will attend weekly workshops and learn valuable information to help them to obtain and maintain employment. Active participation can lead to youth working during our Fall, Winter, and Spring Work Experience. They will be placed on job sites throughout Aiken County, with the hopes that they will gain on-the-job training while earning money.
