There are many youth employment programs available in the four county Finger Lakes region. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, also referred to as stimulus money, provided over 300 youth summer jobs. In addition, over 300 youths were served by a special program operated out of the four county offices and funded by Temporary Assistance to Needy Families. All of these programs provide an opportunity for youths to gain valuable work experience and earn a wage.
