Media Advisory: Minister to Attend Youth Are Working Graduation

The Honourable Shawn Skinner, Minister of Human Resources, Labour and Employment, will attend the Youth Are Working graduation ceremony on Friday, January 26, 11:00 a.m. at the Guv�nor Pub Conference Room, 389 Elizabeth Avenue.

Youth Are Working was created by the St. Francis Foundation in 2004 in response to a recognized need in the community for an employment enhancement program focused on out of school youth aged 17-24. Youth participate in an eight-week employment preparation class and then complete a 26-week job placement.

Minister Skinner will join with members of the community in celebrating the achievements of eight recent graduates of this successful program.
