PLEA's Career Path

McCreary is carrying out an independent evaluation of PLEA's Career Path program. Career Path aims to provide meaningful employment and mentorship to youth ages 15 to 18 who are at high risk of gang involvement. The program involves a 10-week job placement, intensive one-to-one support and supervision, and employer mentoring with a variety of training and educational opportunities. The goals of the program are to increase youth participants' ability to function in work and community environments, to enhance their future job prospects, and to reduce their risk of gang involvement.
