WORKSITE APPLICATION - JobLink Employment and Training Program

Worksite Application

The WIOA Youth Program--JobLink-- partners with local businesses and organizations to provide meaningful paid work experiences for youth and young adults ages 14–24. By becoming a worksite partner, businesses have the opportunity to mentor and develop emerging talent, support workforce readiness in our community, and help participants build valuable workplace skills, confidence, and career exposure.
Work experiences are designed to be mutually beneficial, providing youth with hands-on learning opportunities while allowing employers to contribute to the development of the future workforce. Workforce Development staff provide ongoing support, coordination, and assistance throughout the placement to help ensure a positive experience for both the participant and the worksite.
We welcome partnerships with businesses, nonprofits, and public organizations across a wide range of industries and career pathways.
