Youth Development Programs
Access Inc. strives to provide economic independence for at-risk youth and underserved populations in San Diego County through workforce development programs made up of nonprofit jobs done by our highly-driven team. These programs offer training and education so that participants can find family-sustaining jobs in San Diego, CA. Some examples of these programs are the Job Readiness Training program and the Life Skills program, which some of your local recreation centers may offer your community. Much like the San Diego Youth Symphony, we are here to invest in our youth.
Peer to Peer Youth Programs
Our Peer to Peer Youth programs are designed to connect young people with mentors and other resources in their community, such as San Diego nonprofit jobs. Through these programs, we can help youth gain confidence, build communication skills, and learn life skills that will help them succeed in their future.
Financial Education & Asset Building
We offer a range of resources to help participants improve their financial literacy and save money. We provide skills training, budgeting tools, and access to financial products such as savings accounts, certificates of deposit, or credit cards. We also provide guidance on investing in order to build wealth over time.
Career Counseling & Job Placement
We support youth in finding employment and provide guidance for career development. We offer youth job skills training, connections to employers, assistance for teens going through job listings, resume writing help, and completing job applications. Access connects youth with mentors within their field of interest who can provide additional resources and guidance.
Youth Development & Leadership Training
Our programs promote personal growth by providing opportunities for youth to explore their interests, gain knowledge and skills, build relationships, and develop resilience. We offer education on topics such as financial literacy, communication and life skills, conflict resolution, leadership development, and health awareness. Through our programs, youth can develop the confidence to pursue their goals in both academic and professional settings.
Business Consultation
Access staff serves as advocates for job seekers and employers to ensure that
appropriate job matches are made. Staff contact employers on behalf of job
seekers account based upon their interests, skills, and preferred work settings. We help them get where their going whether it’s San Diego non-profit jobs San Diego, CA needs or a job in a technical field. Once job openings are identified, staff help job seekers understand the position description and requirements, application procedures, and interview process, and advocate on their behalf with the hiring manager.
