Programming will be delivered through
intakes which run for 6 weeks, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM.
Intersections' goal is to help its participants take steps towards long-term attachment to the workforce, or towards continued education. Through an exciting and innovative workshop format incorporating life lessons and state-of-the-art technology, Intersections provides youth with the tools and skills needed to create compelling digital video projects.
The program is delivered at no cost to the participant. All program and support materials will be provided, and certifications are paid for on the participants’ behalf. Participants are paid minimum wage during the course of the workshop (40 hours per week).
