Youth Elevate Program

Are you a local business owner looking to grow and diversify your workforce? The Impact North Shore Youth Elevate Program is a great opportunity to hire motivated, pre-trained youth who are eager to bring their fresh perspectives and skills to your team. This is your chance to support the next generation of talent while benefiting from reduced hiring costs.

What is the Youth Elevate Program?

This government-funded program initiative is designed to empower youth aged 15-30 by providing them with the essential skills and experience needed to thrive in today’s competitive job market. The participants have already completed a comprehensive five-week employment skills training program, which has equipped them with valuable workplace skills and a deep understanding of Canadian workplace culture and expectations.

Now, Impact North Shore is looking for local employers to partner with them and provide 10-week, full-time (30 hours/week), paid job placements for these motivated, pre-trained individuals. The program covers their wages at $17.40 per hour, reducing your hiring costs while offering youth the chance to gain meaningful work experience.

Why Should Your Business Get Involved?

In addition to the wage support, the Youth Elevate Program offers free recruitment assistance to participating employers, including:

  • Pre-screening and matching candidates to your needs
  • Coordinating interviews and facilitating the onboarding process
  • Conducting regular check-ins to ensure a successful placement
  • Providing ongoing support to address any challenges for both employers and employees
Don’t Miss Out—Apply Today!

The Youth Elevate Program is ongoing, with 10 cohorts in total. 

By participating, you’ll help provide valuable work experience to youth, while also boosting your team’s skills and diversity.
