Career Connected Learning PHL participants are getting paid to learn this Fall! Karolyn, a 10th grader at PA Distance Online School said she joined the Niche Clinic because, “I don’t think there is a limit to how much financial education I can and should get. Plus, I get paid to learn about these things.” To learn more about Karolyn and other Philadelphia youth at the Niche-Clinic check out our blog, C2L-PHL Behind the Scenes: The Niche Clinic https://lnkd.in/eTKwYQPb

Can you really get paid to do what you love? Yes! Student teachers with Beyond The Bars Inc are learning new instruments, playing music, teaching others, and building community all while getting paid! The best part is, you don't have to already know how to play an instrument to participate in the Career Connected Learning PHL's Beyond the Bars program! #c2lphl #careerdevelopment #youthworkforce #music #musicteacher

JEVS Human Services President & CEO Cynthia Figueroa, JEVS Senior Vice President of Intermediary Services Kimberly McCaffrey, and Co-Executive Director of the program Beyond The Bars Inc Matthew Kerr spoke to KYW Newsradio about the impact of Career Connected Learning PHL (C2L-PHL). When talking about C2L-PHL, Kimberly said, "It's invaluable for those young folks and their families to have experiences like this, because often you don't know what's out there until you can see what's out there." https://lnkd.in/ez43BwK7
