(All day)
Mar 16 – Mar 18
In March, join the LightHouse Youth Employment Series, YES, workshop focusing on the impact of networking and building both personal and professional connections. YES workshops are monthly weekend-long learning experiences emphasizing the vocational enrichment of low vision and blind youth, increasing and providing access to a multifaceted array of mentorship, employment readiness skills, and alternative accessible techniques. Learn the essentials of networking and apply your knowledge at the YES Mingling Mixer!
The YES Workshop in March will provides students with a space to discuss the meaning of networking, enhance their personal understanding of various types of networks from personal to professional, as well as encourage youth to grow and develop their own web of support. The weekend is spent learning from blind and low vision mentors and engaging in creative hands-on activities which further support youth to explore and achieve their individualized and professional goals.
If you are interested in participating in the March YES Weekend Workshop, please contact your Department of Rehabilitation counselor to discuss workshop attendance and authorization. If you have any questions or would like to pay for your participation in the workshop, please contact Ann Wai-Yee Kwong, Transition Program Specialist, by email at youth@lighthouse-sf.org or by phone at 415-694-7328
