Action for Healthy Communities, thanks to generous funding from Service Canada, has created a community employment initiative that seeks to empower youth and support them to connect with meaningful employment and engagement within their communities.

‘Youth Skills, Youth Jobs’ is a 15 week Group Based Employability Skills (GBES) workshop with an additional 6 week work experience; youth will learn traditional modalities for securing and thriving in a career from business writing to resume building. Moreover, youth will also have access to dynamic presentations (like those from Stage Left) that will seek to support youth to find the strengths and talents within themselves to be successful.

+ v( I' B- L7 n; x* Q; JWho we are: Youth Ventures is a centralized assessment agency funded through Service Canada. We refer youth to Skills Link projects which assist youth facing barriers to employment and or education. Skills Link programs are focused on developing a broad range of skills, knowledge and work experience they need in order to successfully participate in the job market.

At Youth Ventures, one-on-one assessment is provided to clearly identify participant's needs, goals, and any potential concerns that need to be addressed in order to achieve their personal success. We will work together to develop an individualized Action Plan that will set out realistic goals, and timelines for referrals, services and resources. By completing this Action Plan, we will be able to meet identified needs by referring participants to the services and resources available in our community.

Reel me is a week- long assessment based upon the youth’s participation in a project that is aimed at developing a baseline for identifying basic needs, improving and strengthening rapport with their Youth Ventures case manager. This workshop is also used as a tool to gather more information for Skills Link providers in their efforts to deliver programs that best meet the needs represented by the youth.

The site visits are intended to keep rapport with clientele, assist with following the youth’s transition, as well as build a strong working relationship with Service Providers. Team Builders are often initiated, and followed with a barrier goal sheet in which the youth re-assess their barriers and goals and assist in developing sub-goals which will be reviewed upon the next site visit.


Next Step
5 \( v$ K& F, o# }
During the later portion of the program, two case managers will meet with the youth to conduct a Next Step visit. This visit is often held at the Service Provider location or held at Youth Ventures. The assigned case manager and one other case manager will meet with the youth. During the Next Step, we remind the youth of Youth Ventures role, discuss our 3 month follow up which starts after they have successfully completed the program. In addition the Work Experience component of Youth Ventures is also discussed at this time. Youth are encouraged to pursue supports from their case manager if they have not stabilized employment or have not registered in school. Towards the end of the visit each youth will fill in a Snapshot in which the youth can compare and rate themselves based on before and after the program. This concludes with a discussion around the Next Steps the youth needs to take to reach their goals.

Follow Up

9 {, d/ W# y$ b3 \) XUpon successful completion of a Skills Link program, Youth Ventures Case manager conducts a three month follow up. The goal of a program is to have the youth either employed or in school, if this is not satisfied following the first month of graduation the youth will have a longer follow up timeframe. Youth who are unable to continue on with the desired goal will continue to be case managed in which a new action plan will be put into place and their case manager can continue to work with them for up to three years.

Work Experience

Youth Ventures Work Experience role is to support youth to connect to employers by marketing, coaching, and mentoring them through the development of an individualized ‘Employment Training Plan’.Employers that participate in Youth Ventures Work Experience receive a wage subsidy for up to 50% of the employee’s wage.  The main goal is that youth will gain valuable experience and the skills necessary to maintain ongoing employment once the ‘Employment Training Plan’ is complete.
Employment Workshops
