Summer Jobs for Youth (Teens & College)

From the Greater Chatham Alliance:

The City of Chicago and Cook County have developed a central office for summer youth jobs and summer kid programs.

But like anything, there's not enough jobs and programs to go around for every kid, teen and young adult living in Chicago.

So we had to make sure we got this info to you as fast as we got it!

Please download the attached GCA Announcement that provides links to the youth jobs and summer kid programs.

Unfortunately, everything has to be done online.

So if you know of families with kids, teens and young adults who don't have computer access, this is the time to extend a helping hand.

Or suggest they hurry on down to the nearest public library and sign-up!

 Refer to the document that is posted below for MORE information!
