HIRE! Pontiac
The Hire Pontiac Program, with its commitment to workforce development and improving educational outcomes, is designed to equip students, particularly those from underserved communities, with the skills and experiences necessary to pursue successful careers in the STEM fields leading to higher paying careers.
Paving The Road to Success
Our program’s objectives are also designed to promote improved educational outcomes, career development during out of school time learning that focuses on character and leadership development, academic excellence, and active community involvement.
Target Group and Needs
Our primary target group consists of high school students in the Pontiac area, with a focus on those facing socio-economic challenges that limit their access to STEM education and career opportunities. These students often lack exposure to STEM fields, mentorship, and real-world work experiences, which are critical for developing interest and competencies in these areas.
