| EXPERIENCE PROGRAM Below is information about the Summer Youth Employment/Work Investment Areas and Community Action Agencies. Please let me know if you need anything else. Summer Youth Employment/Work Experience is primarily intended to teach effective work habits and behaviors and develop work readiness skills for those who have never worked or who have not worked for a significant amount of time. “Work Experience” is designed to provide youth with opportunities for career exploration, to gain exposure to the working world and its requirements; to help youth acquire personal attributes, knowledge, and skills needed to obtain a job and advance in employment and skill development and not to solely benefit the employer. Acceptance into the Summer Youth Employment/Work Experience Program is dependent upon meeting the eligibility requirements of the designated funding source and federal guidelines. “Work Experience” is not designed to replace an existing employee or position. Participation in a Summer Employment/Work Experience shall be for a minimum of 5 to 8 weeks, scheduling a maximum of 40 hours per week between May 1st through September 30th with work readiness based on the availability of staff. Public, non-profit, and for-profit organizations are eligible to serve as work sites for a Summer Employment/Work Experience. Work sites that are not eligible for a Summer Employment/Work Experience include: casinos or other gambling establishments, aquariums, zoos, golf courses, or swimming pools. In addition, participants must not be employed to carry out the construction, operation, or maintenance of any part of any facility that is used or to be used for sectarian instruction or as a place for religious worship.
