what we do
Kollab Youth prepares youths for a better life through a fun and educational journey. Our program helps youth members gain experience, find their voice, have access to experts, and build the confidence they need to succeed in school, career, and life.
The Program
The Kollab Youth Workforce Development Program is an award winning 501(c)3 public charity organization and CA DAS Registered Pre-Apprenticeship Program created for under-resourced high school students aged 14 to 19 years old. The Kollab Youth program helps them explore career opportunities in business, STEM, and other emerging 21st century careers that are high-growth and high-wage jobs. Youths receive mentorship from industry experts and earn resume-worthy work experience through paid apprenticeships and internships – connecting them with the future workforce and preparing them to compete in tomorrow’s workplace.
Kollab Youth ensures our Los Angeles County youth have the skills and knowledge they need to contribute to the global economy. Cultivating resourcefulness as a skill prepares young people for jobs that may not yet exist. In fact, the more resourceful they are, the more likely they are to become young entrepreneurs that create new companies and jobs for others.
