ABOUT THE EVENT
Volunteers will assist Year Up students to work through a goal setting template. Students will be asked to articulate their short term goals in a "SMART" format (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-based). These experiences are incredibly important and impactful in helping the students prepare for internships and the work world.
Training materials will be provided in advance of the event.

ABOUT YEAR UP
Year Up’s mission is to close the Opportunity Divide by providing motivated young adults with the skills, experience, and support that will empower them to reach their potential through professional careers and higher education. The Opportunity Divide is the vast gap that exists between young adults from underserved neighborhoods, who have the motivation to succeed but lack access to the resources that will enable them to do so, and companies who have sizable human capital needs and lack access to a viable pool of motivated and diverse talent.
