Girls For A Change will launch its Girl Ambassador Program, a four-year, tiered approach to workforce development, at Meadowbrook High School.
Through paced learning and development, certified instructors work with girls based on their individual software and hardware proficiencies and life experiences to teach hybrid skills and prepare them for better paying jobs and leadership roles. During the program, participants meet thought leaders and subject matter experts on job readiness, leadership, networking, and financial literacy. Such connections help give them a head start on professional and entrepreneurial career pathways, according to the organization’s news release.
The summer series launches Monday, July 24, and continues through Friday, Aug. 4, with the opportunity to continue through the fall and spring semesters. The program will culminate with a paid summer internship for participants in the summer of 2024, according to Girls For A Change.
Parents and girls who are interested in learning more are invited to join Girls For A Change from 4 to 7 p.m. July 10 and 11 at Starbucks, 6548 Hull Street Road. For more information, visit girlsforachange.org.
