STEP-UP places Minneapolis students ages 14-21 with barriers to employment in paid summer jobs at top Minneapolis businesses and local non-profits. All STEP-UP interns complete a rigorous work readiness training curriculum and upon successful completion of training are eligible to be placed in summer jobs. All training classes this year will be on Saturdays at MCTC.
At STEP-UP, we believe that the youth of Minneapolis are the powerful leaders of tomorrow for our city. This belief drives everything we do. We have high expectations for our youth, and we have seen youth exceed those expectations year after year.
STEP-UP will empower you to discover your strengths and train you to own your power so you can be successful at work. We will match your specific strengths with paid internship opportunities you would not have access to on your own. These opportunities have the potential to change the course of your future.
