Warren County wants to increase business, youth partnerships

By WNYT

The Warren County Department of Workforce Development wants help from business partners to help meet the needs of local youth.

The goal is to increase the number of teens engaged with Warren County businesses, so young people can gain work experience and connect with mentors.

An online survey has been created to increase business participation in programs that help prepare teens for the workforce.

The Department of Workforce Development already offers many engaging programs for youth, including internship placement, high school job fairs, business field trips and a career mentor program.
