Job Experience Training Internship - The JETI
In partnership with OhioMEANSJobs’ TANF program, the JETI program builds resiliency in low-income youth, aged 16-24, who are engaged to help with all aspects of OCS’s food distribution efforts. During their paid internship, they receive life-skill mentoring, and gain excellent work experience and soft-skill job training, while becoming valuable members of the OCS team.
