CLT Alliance Talks: How the Mayor’s Youth Employment Program is Preparing Charlotte's Youth to Join the Talent Pipeline

Fondly called "MYEP," the Mayor’s Youth Employment Program works to provide all Charlotte youth with equitable career development opportunities to explore the world of work, build social capital, and enhance economic mobility. On this episode of CLT Alliance Talks, Cherise Walker, VP of Talent & Inclusion, speaks with the City of Charlotte’s MYEP Manager, Dawn Hill, about how this program is connecting our business community with our city’s youth to create pathways to attainable career goals.

This year marks the 35th season of MYEP, and leaders are poised to offer hundreds of work-based learning opportunities.  To participate as a Host Business, or learn the ways your business can support the talent of tomorrow, visit the MYEP website at charlottenc.gov/youth or contact the MYEP team at myep@charlottenc.gov or at 704-336-5577.
