Finding Work
Young adults tell us...
"Going from school to college was easier than I thought."
"Working for the park service is perfect for me; I am outside in nature every day. I can see what I have accomplished every time I walk on a trail I have helped build."
"I took Electronics in high school, so it was easy for me to complete the Electronic Engineering Technology program at my local community college."
