Pathways to Employment Success
The Pathways to Employment Success program provides youth with opportunities to explore future career options, as well as practice the crucial skills needed to seek employment. We work with students & staff in the local school districts (Riverview School District and Snoqualmie Valley School District) to plan activities and events that are relevant to youth’s employment development. It is our hope that youth will recognize there are many rewarding paths to success.

UPCOMING FREE EVENTS
More specifically, youth across Snoqualmie Valley are looking for jobs and internships with you!
Pathways to Employment Success is currently seeking to expand our network of connections with local businesses and organizations that are open to the idea of high school students tackling projects you don’t have time for, supporting administrative operations that may be slowing you down, managing social media you can’t keep up with, addressing mechanical issues you haven’t been able to solve—or helping in any area where you could use additional support and optimization. There are capable, innovative and skilled young people waiting!
Interested in helping the next generation of leaders find their footing while helping yourself in the process? Contact Maddy Horn by clicking on her bio!
