Bill Fennessy, Director of Community Engagement and Work-Based Learning at THINK Together, recently wrote a blog for the Learning in Afterschool & Summer blog series on preparing youth for work and career. “Preparing youth for work and career is now rapidly becoming an integral part in preparing youth with the skills they will need in school and life… All youth regardless of their age can begin expanding their ideas of what they might do as adults. Coupling those ideas with the experience of related work in the real world brings the important relevance which results in greater engagement in their work at school.” To read the blog in its entirety, click here.
