Futures and Options empowers New York City’s underserved youth to explore careers. Through career development and paid, mentored internships, our model program enables New York’s underserved youth to gain much needed access to the economic mainstream, work readiness training and support from caring adults. At the same time, private and nonprofit businesses are connected to a pipeline of promising, motivated and diverse young interns. We reach out to teens at a formative time of their lives, guiding them to further their education and become contributing citizens.
