MBK Community Health Worker Certification Program
A number of high school freshmen through juniors in the MBK Feeder Patterns are currently engaged in a Community Health Worker Certification program. These students receive classroom training and are to subsequently complete 40 service learning hours upon completion to become fully certified. For participation in the program the students will receive a stipend.
Youth Hired During Summer Jobs Fair Hosted at HHD Multi-Service Centers
A major component of MBK is Milestone 5: Successfully Entering the Workforce. Aligned to this Milestone were the Youth Summer Jobs Fairs hosted at four (4) of our City of Houston Multi-Service Centers (MSC) including: Southwest, Sunnyside, Acres Home, and Magnolia.
Approximately 344 youth hired out of 562 attendees…that’s a 61.2% impact with the majority in the Mayor’s neighborhood. We are awaiting the feedback from the survey to provide additional intelligence on what worked well and not-so-well.
