Street Job Project
Street Job is a six month long group work experience for 10 'street youth' between the ages of 16 and 24 who are unemployed and out of school. Meant as an alternative to pan-handling the Street Job participants work on a number of community development projects of benefit to others in the area, while gaining much needed first job experience. Street Job is now in its fourth incarnation.
