Eckerd Connects NYC provides training and support services to eligible young adults ages 16-24 who live in one of the five boroughs and who are in need of additional preparation and support to continue their education or to obtain and retain employment.
The major focus of our programs is to connect out-of-school youth to career readiness; guidance and counseling; education; community resources; support services; paid internship experiences; and employment and training opportunities.
In all of our programs, our goal is to help young people secure good paying jobs in fast-growing economic sectors.
