YOUTH EDUCATION AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
Building Toward Real Self-Sufficiency
Real opportunities to get a living wage job. Today's job market is especially challenging for the thousands of poor and homeless residents of the greater Bay Area.
Glide's Training and Employment Services (TAES) program reaches out to the unemployed and under-trained with courses involving GED Preparation, pre-apprenticeship construction, and High School curriculum for adults ages 16 to 24 years old. Glide provides job skills training, case management, interview skills, certification programs, leadership skills training, and assistance with job placement.
Time and again, program graduates have proven that the only thing separating the homeless from the self-sufficient is the right set of tools. Click here to download the Glide TAES brochure.
