ABOUT Workforce AT CASW
Children’s Arts & Science Workshops Inc., (CASW) offers a comprehensive workforce program that works directly with New York City youth to prepare them for future career paths and opportunities. Through CASW’s guidance, youth are trained from the very basics of the resume writing process through navigating the complexities of their very first job interview. CASW has formed partnerships with several high schools throughout the Bronx and Manhattan to offer premier work-readiness programs. Utilizing these relationships, CASW partners with the Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) to lead project-based Summer Youth Employment Programs (SYEP), year-long Work, Learn, and Grow programs (WLG), the Ladders for Leaders initiative (LFL), and the Pathways program. Each year more than 4000 youth are served and obtain adequate employment opportunities, often opening doors to long-lasting and enriched placements.
