The LA Youth at Work program trains youth (16-24 years of age) to become work ready. The youth we work with go through a 3 hour, Job Skills Workshop (JSW) and a Work Readiness Certification Interview (WRC).
LA Youth at Work needs volunteers at a WRC to serve as mock interviewer. To volunteer you do not need to attend a training. The first time you volunteer as an interviewer, you will be asked to come in for a 30 min orientation to teach you the process.
To register and RSVP to upcoming events visit:
