Help Shape Tomorrow’s Workforce

At No Cost to You!

​

Employers everywhere are saying the same thing: many recent grads just aren’t ready for the job. But you can be part of the solution. This summer, give a local high school student the chance to gain real-world experience and give your team a boost by hosting a fully-funded intern through the West Sacramento Home Run program. It’s a win-win: you invest in the future, and it costs you nothing.
