Participate in the 2024 Youth Employment Programs
We are actively recruiting worksites that can provide opportunities for youth interns from our Direct Placement Program to engage in real-world work experiences in the community. Opportunities are available after school through June 2024 and in the summer beginning July 2024.
Several thousand youths apply to SYEP each year. The Direct Placement Internship Program is a subset of SYEP designed to serve youth ages 16+ who demonstrate a higher level of job-readiness than most. Participants are placed in higher-level positions in the public, not-for-profit, or private sectors. Many interns for Direct Placement have already held employment or participated in job-readiness-trainings programs prior to referral.
Interested businesses can complete a Youth Worker Request Form and submit it to Rochester Works! or the City of Rochester using the instructions included in the documents below.
