Summer Youth Work Experience Program

We are proud to share with you the success our Mission Service Team had with the 2023 Summer Youth Work Experience Program.

Throughout our territory, students with disabilities participated in our summer youth work experience program with Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities (OOD.) This program provides an opportunity for students and youth to explore the world of work and gain on-the-job training. These paid work experiences allow them to identify interests, build confidence, and learn essential skills in a job setting.
