Calling all non-profits, community organizations, and youth advocates!
Are you working with youth who are seeking new opportunities? The new ASCEND program is offering 19-21 weeks of paid employment for NEET youth across Prince Edward Island along with 2 weeks of paid pre-employment training.
Please note: NEET youth, ages 15-30, must NOT be employed, in education or training at the time of their application.
✨ This fully subsidized program provides:
✅ Paid work experience and training for youth who need it most.
✅ A chance for your organization to offset staffing shortages while supporting young people.
✅ An opportunity to introduce youth to the community sector and help them build essential skills.
We know how transformative these opportunities can be. Let's work together to create brighter futures for the young people we care about!
