Seattle City Councilmember Lisa Herbold shared this information via her newsletter to constituents:
The Seattle Youth Employment Program (SYEP) is open to young people, ages 16-24 for low-income households and communities that experience racial, social, and economic disparities with the goal of increasing their ability to pursue careers that pay well and are meaningful to them.
There are two components to the program, an exploration and learning experience during the schoolyear, and a summer internship where interns will be paid $16.39 for up to 150 hours over six weeks.
Check out the website to see if you’re eligible and are interested in applying. The application period will close on Tuesday, March 17.
