The job market is tough out there — especially for young adults in developing countries.
More than 200 million young people are still either unemployed or working at such low wages that they are living in poverty, according to the International Labour Organization.
We’re so proud of our teens’ accomplishments! The Into Employment® program
is their secret to success, equipping young adults with specific job training and life skills to lift them out of poverty.But don’t take our word for it. Listen to our Into Employment grads.
The program operates in Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, the Philippines and Zambia.

Seeing the impact of this program is so encouraging! After all, even kids who don't live in poverty can have a hard time getting jobs. Teens (and even a lot of adults!) simply don't typically know the importance of using good grammar in a resume or cover letter or how to take advantage of the internet in looking for jobs. That makes these skills even more critical for CI kids.

Thank you for showing what goes on the Community Centres; it really shows us that these places of refuge are vital learning places and for health of the kids too. Thanks for sharing.

It's so wonderful to see what sponsoring a child means. It's nice to see the children to go on to jobs and they still think of their families by supporting them with their paychecks.
