Living Classrooms’ job skills training and workforce development programs assist disadvantaged youth and young adults to overcome obstacles including lack of education, lack of skills, poor work history, history of substance abuse or criminal behavior, and childcare and transportation barriers. Our programs help youth address these issues and become successful by developing a network of support and resources, teaching youth marketable job skills such as professionalism, communication, and problem-solving, and providing opportunities for academic remediation and continuing education.
