Genesee County Job Development Bureau announces its Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) and is recruiting Genesee County youth looking for a summer job.
The program provides eligible youth with an opportunity to earn a paycheck, gain valuable job skills, and build real-world work experience during the summer months. SYEP works to place youth in jobs within their own communities whenever possible, matching participants with local businesses, schools, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations that can provide meaningful experience and mentorship.
To be eligible for SYEP, applicants must:
• Be at least 14 years old, but not over 20 years old
• Permanently reside in Genesee County, New York
• Have a household income at or below 200% of the federal poverty level, or be enrolled in programs such as family assistance, safety net assistance, Medicaid, SNAP, HEAP, or SSI.
