PROGRAMMING PILOTS
from Perseverance
by PYNinc
PYN’s Skilled Career Pathways for Young Talent initiative, launched in 2020, seeks to connect young people disconnected from school and work to middle-skills roles in the healthcare and tech industries through training, mentorship and development.
In the past year, PYN and training partners of the initiative were able to connect 62 opportunity youth with local healthcare and tech employers, such as Urban Technology Project, International SOS, InspiriTec, Home Care Associates, Health Fleet Ambulance and Enroute Marketing.
