The Career Choice program supports youth in foster care who are enrolled in a formal trade school program or a job/training skills development program.
As part of the Career Choice program, ACS is doubling the capacity of its participation in DYCD's Advance and Earn program. Youth who participate in Career Choice receive a stipend and other supports, such as coaching, assistance with program fees, tuition and housing cost if needed.
Overall, the Career Choice program will serve approximately 400 youth.
