Operation Hope |
|
The Jewish Renaissance Foundation is offering a year-round program of activities to out-of-school youth who are
between 16 and 21 years of age. It is our intent to respond to the needs of youth who have missed the opportunity
of completing their academic requirements for a secondary education. This program will focus on the school dropout
or those who have either graduated from high school or who hold a GED but are deficient in basic literary skills.
The program will provide academic and workplace skills training to Perth Amboy residents. Compensation is provided.
The program has four primary goals:
- EDUCATION
- High School Diploma
- GED (State Diploma)
- ESL (English as a Second Language)
- Basic Skills Remediation
- Computer Technology
- WORK/JOB EXPERIENCE
- LEADERSHIP
- SUPPORT SERVICES
|
|
Operation Hope will focus on the following goals to achieve participant's success:
- Basic Skills Attainment
- Work Readiness
- Occupational skills Training
- Military Service
- Employment (unsubsidized)
- Post Secondary Education
|
|
The program design elements consist of the following:
- Tutoring, study skills training and instruction, computer technology
- Summer employment directly linked to academic and occupational learning
- Paid and unpaid work experience, including internship and job shadowing
- Occupational skills training
