Kiara B. is also one of our youth participants in the Youth Employment Program through CCWP. Kiara was on the verge of being homeless when she came into our office for help. We placed her in the community garden project portion of her internship, where she had developed her teamwork and critical thinking skills. She excelled in her performance and was able to complete the program successfully. Once the program was over, we set Kiara up for a prescreening with AirServ Corp. through Albany Park Community Center. Kiara was one of the few chosen to move forward in the process and was then hired as a full-time Lobby Agent. She was very excited and thankful for her new position. We are so very proud of Kiara.
