This collaborative is working to expand employment experiences for young people, ages 14-21 in Detroit.
Since 2009, City has co-chaired and staffed this collaborative and managed summer employment programs on behalf of the DYEC.
Programs managed on behalf of this collaborative include a Summer Youth Employment Program and the Grow Detroit’s Young Talent program, the later of which has raised more than $10 million and helped more than 7,000 young people find summer work experiences in Detroit.
The collaborative is now preparing for the 2015 iteration of the Grow Detroit’s Young Talent program.
