This summer The DC Center will be participating in the Mayor's Summer Youth Employment Program. The Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) is a locally funded initiative sponsored by the Department of Employment Services that provides District youth ages 14 to 21 with enriching and constructive summer work experiences through subsidized placements in the private and government sectors such as The DC Center. This year, SYEP will start on Monday, June 25, 2012 and will end on Friday, August 3, 2012. This is a great way to gain useful work experience and get paid.

For details on SYEP, visit DC's Department of Employment Services website here. If you apply to SYEP and are specifically interested in working with The DC Center, email Marika Lee at marika@thedccenter.org with a brief statement of interest.
