YOUTH OPPORTUNITIES
This page is dedicated to sharing job opportunities, free workshops, events, and much more for youth in foster care and aging out.
THE ANIMATION PROJECT
TAP's partners at Museum of the Moving Image invite YOU to apply for their Teen Council program.
Teen Council is a PAID workforce development program for high school students. Participants meet twice a week from November through May and explore the moving image through an extensive curriculum led by Senior Educator, Kieran Huang, along with local and international guest artists who join the program throughout the year.
Participants collaborate to create a public program and organize the Teen Film Festival, where New York City teens showcase their films.
THIS OPPORTUNITY IS ONLY AVAILABLE TO CURRENT HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS AND SENIORS
THE POSSIBILITY PROJECT
The Possibility Project utilizes the power of narrative and the performing arts to empower young people with the tools to transform their lives and their communities.
Our young people commit to meeting for six to seven hours weekly over the course of nine months to engage in a social/emotional learning experience that uses the performing arts to examine and address the personal and social forces that shape their lives and identities.
Join Breath-Body-Mind™ sessions to learn gentle, science-based exercises that help reduce stress and build resilience. These classes are free to all New Yorkers and accessible through Zoom.
SUNY University Center for Academic and Workforce Development
At SUNY UCAWD, they create access to opportunity by giving New York State tuition-free programs that help eliminate barriers to education.
FOSTER GREATNESS:
A lived experience-led platform
Foster Greatness is the only digital community platform built entirely by and for people impacted by foster care. Unlike traditional services that end at 18, we provide lifelong peer support, career opportunities, and resources—because we know the foster system's impact doesn't stop when you age out.
