DYCD’s Train & Earn Program serves Opportunity Youth aged 16 – 24 years with occupational skills training in NYC’s growth sectors, career exploration activities, paid work experiences, and academic instruction leading to a high school equivalency diploma, if needed. Youth are assisted in accessing an array of supports as they build their employability skills, including health care, child care, and other services they may need, and are also placed in employment, college, or advanced occupational training.
