Juma seeks to break the cycle of poverty by paving the way to work, education, and financial capability for young adults across America. Our Youth Connect program seeks to work with young adults that have faced barriers to entering the workforce due to challenges such as a history of incarceration, experiencing homelessness, participating in the foster care system, young parenthood, mental health disorders and other similar challenges.
The questions within this application are an effort to provide high quality programming to Juma participants. In addition, these questions are helpful to Juma's partners in their efforts to advocate for more and better job-related training and programs for young people like yourself.
Your answers are always kept anonymous, and your identifying information will never be provided outside of Juma without your consent.
Juma Ventures is an equal opportunity employer.
