The NEST provides immediate and long-term impact by connecting youth to jobs with local and regional employers, that provide a living wage and the potential for career advancement. The NEST strengthens the economic vitality of overlooked communities as employers fill critical workforce needs, while simultaneously improving the prosperity of vulnerable youth, families and communities.
