 Good afternoon everybody. We're so glad you could make it today. My name is Marisa Rodanti. I'm the program's outreach coordinator at the mayor's office of media and entertainment. And we're really pleased that you're going to be getting some information about the summer youth employment program, which not only employs youths during the summer, but it gives them a way to understand a professional atmosphere for work. It starts them on a financial planning situation and it keeps them engaged in their life experience begins with an internship. So without further ado, because we have a very packed house today, we're getting a lot of participants. I'm going to wait a couple of more minutes. But in the meantime, we will start introducing our guests that will be speaking and taking your questions. We will do a short presentation and then take all of your questions, which will be in a Q and A box that Noel Murray, who is here as our program coordinator and the master of all zooms will handle for us. So again, my name is Marisa Rodanti. I welcome you all. I'm really glad to see so many people have engaged in this fantastic program. And I would also like to introduce our associate commissioner of workforce development and educational initiatives, Aliyah Jones Harvey. Aliyah. Good afternoon. How is everyone doing? And thank you so much, Marisa and the Department of Youth and Community Development for organizing today's webinar. MoM is committed to building a diverse, equitable and inclusive workforce for New York City. Initiatives such as the summer youth employment program and ladders for leaders will help us reach our goal by providing a professional work opportunity to our young New Yorkers. The sooner a young person experiences a working environment in a field of interest, the better the chance that they can build a career in that industry. And so this is why we're excited that you're here today to learn more about the summer youth employment program. And thank you for coming. I'll turn it back over to Marisa. Thanks, Noel. I'm sorry, I'm just going to stretch for a few more minutes because we are filling up really quickly. Hello, Darrell. I'm so glad to see you. Can you see anything on the screen? Do you see that? No. Darrell Johnson. Is it okay now, Darrell? Anyway, we wanted to emphasize that not only are you introducing a young person by employing them through this program, which doesn't cost you anything, to a work environment, but you're also introducing them to your industry. I know that we have interest from theaters, we have interest from unions and production houses and even beauty parlors and hotels. So all those industries are getting, allowing a young person to be introduced to that industry, which only helps your industry in the long run. So I am now going to introduce, we are very pleased to have Sarah Whitney with us from the Department of Youth and Community Development who runs this program. She is the Senior Director of Employer Engagement and Partnerships. Take it away, Sarah. Hi, folks. Thank you so much for having me. I reshared the slides here. So hopefully folks can now see the screen if you cannot feel free to drop us a message in the chat, but it looks like it's fixed on your end. Marisa, Alia, Noel, thank you so much for having us. Again, my name is Sarah Whitney from the New York City Department of Youth and Community Development, and I'm joined by my colleague Amir Tassin, who is also part of our Employer Engagement and Partnerships here at DYCD. We're excited to share with you a bit about the Summer Youth Employment Program today. For those of you who have participated in the program in the past, we hope that this re-energizes you to commit to once again hiring New York City youth through the program this summer. And for those of you who are new and have not been a part of SYEP in the past, we hope you'll join us. So today we're just going to talk a little bit about the basics of SYEP if you're not familiar and, you know, why, why we hope you'll join us in participating this summer. We'll go through some program details to refresh on what's expected in the year in the summer ahead and dive a little bit deeper into work experiences for young people, what typical work experiences look like and what they could look like for you at your company or organization. And then we'll close out by just briefing you quickly on the process and timeline to partner with us and answer your questions. So if you're not familiar, the Summer Youth Employment Program is the nation's largest youth employment program. We connect young people across the city to paid jobs and internships every summer. In 2022 and again in 2023, we're reaching 100,000 young New Yorkers ages 14 to 24 through this program. If you grew up in New York, you know that SYEP is kind of a rite of passage for New Yorkers. The program actually launched in 1963. We're celebrating the 60th anniversary of the program this summer. If you were an SYEP participant, I'd love if you drop that in the chat, maybe with what your SYEP job was and we'll have something special for you at announcement at the end. But you know, the value proposition for a young person is pretty clear, right? You're earning a paycheck that you might not otherwise have. You're getting a head start on your career. But for companies and organizations, there's also a huge value add to partnering to host New York City youth through the program. You get to connect with hyperlocal talent. So if you're looking to expand your footprint in certain communities, we work with young people across the city in every single New York City neighborhood who have not only energy and creativity, but true skills that they're learning through their education, through our training programs, or that they're learning on the job. And they really, you know, are helping us to build a workforce that reflects New York City. We want to help young people get a head start on their career trajectories so that we can ensure that, you know, we do a better job all of us across industries in hiring local residents and ensuring that we're able to provide meaningful, well-paying career opportunities to all New Yorkers in the future. We also have a signature program, almost a capstone experience that I wanted to briefly share with you called Ladders for Leaders. This is a nationally recognized internship program for young people who are high achieving academically and who have some past work experience. This is an opportunity for those companies and organizations who might have advanced professional internships and want to hire young people directly during the summer months. We offer an opportunity to help you with that recruitment. We work with high schools and colleges across the city and young people who are from New York but attending college across the country to support the recruitment pipeline to provide highly qualified candidates who have just the same skills and talents as their peers at top universities across the country, but might not have the network, the personal network to get them in the door at some of these internship programs and through our Ladders program we help to do that. We have a number of partners across a variety of industries that you can see here. We're really grateful to all of you who have partnered with us in the past. I see a few names in the chat that I recognize. In addition to those you see on the screen, we've worked with folks like Bronx Net, Community Cable Programming, Bronx Theater, Fox 5, the City Parks Foundation, the Classical Theater of Harlem, the Epic Theater Ensemble, Stone Street Studios. We have been really grateful to have the support of the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment and many in the industry to host New York City youth through our programs in the past and we hope that you'll join us if you haven't for this coming summer. And so why is this important to us now? Obviously, we want to provide young people with experiences in a range of industries, but the city's creative economy supports 95,000 jobs, $11 billion in wages and $34 billion in total economic output for the, according to a recent report from 2022. And specifically in 2022 last summer more than 10,000 SYEP applicants chose arts, entertainment, broadcasting or advertising as their top career choice. And we want to make sure we can partner those young people who have interest in this industry directly with companies and organizations that can help them meet those goals in exploring their careers. In our post SYEP survey, so a survey of all participants who were placed at jobs and internships last summer, 21% of those respondents asked us to provide them with more future experiences in entertainment and sports, and 19% requested media and communications opportunities, just a few examples of industries that you might all be working in or have networks within where we're really seeing a lot of young people ask to participate, to have career exploration opportunities. And so for those of you who might not be super familiar with the program structure, I wanted to offer a few details. So our 14 and 15-year-old young people who are part of SYEP take part in project-based learning experiences. They work with one of our city-funded community-based organizations to go through project-based learning. They're doing workplace readiness. They're doing financial literacy. They're really learning about what the workplace will be like for them when they turn 16. And our 16 to 24-year-olds are placed on their employer partners, or as we refer to them, worksites, hopefully all of you this summer, based on their age, their skills, and their interests, right? They're paid $15 an hour directly through the city of New York, so there's no cost to employers. And they work for up to 25 hours per week for six weeks over the summer. Employers have the option to have the young people start on July 5th or July 10th, and they work for those six weeks. We offer in-person, remote, or hybrid roles, so that's really up to the employer themselves what works best. And all we ask of you, in addition to providing a job opportunity that the young people can learn while directly contributing to the work of your organization, is that you provide supportive supervision. We ask for every 12 participants that accompany our organization hires through SYEP, you provide at least one supervisor. If you don't discriminate, we can have you host just as few as one intern over the summer, or as many as you think that you have appropriate and impactful roles for. And as I mentioned, there's been a number of companies in the industry that have hired through SYEP in the past. This is just a very brief list to give you an idea of some past worksite experiences that young people have had. You might want to offer young people with a range of opportunities. If you might have office-based work for a young person this summer, we'd love for you to hire through SYEP. If you might have fieldwork, community-based work that you're doing across the city that you want young people to support with, we'd love for you to hire. If you have a project in mind that you or your colleagues have wanted to take on for the past few years and you just haven't had the time for a young person with energy, with creativity and a willingness to learn, we'd love for you to think of SYEP as a way to finally get that project done. And then if you want to offer opportunities to shadow various members of your organization who do different work, that's a great way for young people to learn as well. We can provide you all with an internship design kit to help think through what an internship or job experience would look like with your organization and your community is really our endless. And then briefly, I'll share a new initiative that we're launching this year. Mayor Adams actually launched what we're calling SYEP Pride at this year's State of the City event back in February. This is a new initiative specifically open to young people who want to find first job experiences that are supportive of young people in the LGBTQ plus community. We're going to be providing not only welcoming and inclusive workplaces for the young people to be hosted at this summer, but we're also going to be providing career exploration events with local leaders and organizations. We're going to be offering employer training opportunities for young for employers who have a commitment to supporting LGBTQ plus youth but don't necessarily know how to provide a particularly inclusive and welcoming experience. So if your organization is committed to supporting what unfortunately oftentimes might not be a great first job experience for a young person in this community, but you want to make sure that they have that powerful welcoming first experience we'd love for you to reach out to us to host a young person from our SYEP Pride initiative. And so that brings me to my call to action for you all. How can you support us? We hope that you'll hire New York City youth through SYEP or Ladders for Leaders. We'll share this presentation with everyone through the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment. And we have links on our next slide to the application. We hope you'll champion the program within your network. If you know of other organizations, companies that might be interested in this opportunity, we hope that you share this with them in the top right-hand corner. You'll see a QR code which will allow you to download our outreach toolkit to gain access to videos, flyers, graphics that can help you share the opportunity with others. We also welcome you to reach out about hosting a career exploration event. Last summer we offered about 50 different career exploration opportunities for young people to not only get exposure to the industry that they were working in, but also to have a chance to visit offices in different industries and sectors to do skill-building workshops with employees and organizations as part of their summer experience. So we'd welcome a conversation about how you might help us to host one of those events. And then the last opportunity is, of course, always to provide in-kind support, whether that's helping us with advertising, promotion, creative services. We try our best here at DUICD, but we also always welcome any support that you all may be able to give in helping us expand the program and continue to provide available opportunities to young people across New York City. Our timeline, as Marisa and Amir mentioned in the chat here, are worksite applications. So that's the form that you'll fill out to commit hiring youth through SYAP is due May 26th. A link is here and we'll share it afterwards as well. We ask that you'll complete this application with information about what the job opportunity or scholarship is with your company, what the desired schedule is for the young people, how many young people you'd like to host this summer, and any other details that we should know. Maybe you're particularly looking someone for someone with Spanish language skills, or you're particularly hoping to find someone who is studying or hopes to study IT, whatever that might be. We welcome you to share that with us in the worksite application. In that application, you'll choose a partner of ours. That community partner will help to match you with participants based on the role that you provide and the needs that you have. So those community partners serve almost as a liaison between the young people and the employers. So as you can see in May and June, they'll do worksite pre-assessments to meet with you, answer any questions you might have, and ensure that the partnership is ready and appropriate for the young people. And then by mid-June, they'll assign you two participants for the summer who can start either July 5th or July 10th. And then lastly, before we close out and answer questions that you might have, as I mentioned in the beginning, we're celebrating the 60th anniversary of SYEP this summer. And I can imagine, I saw a few things go by in the chat. I can imagine that many of you have been able to share with us whether you were a participant when you were young, whether you were, you've hosted young people in the past who you then ended up hiring with your company or organization. We would love to hear your story and we're collecting stories online at the link that you can see on your screen. We are excited to celebrate those stories in the spring and over the summer so that we can recognize the impact that this program has had for the lives of so many New Yorkers. So we'll share this afterwards and drop it in the chat. We really hope you'll share your story with us so that we can feature you throughout the summer. And so with that, I'll take a break, a pause. I think Noel will help me to get some questions from folks that Amir and I can answer for you. Thank you so much for being here. Hi, that's fantastic, Sarah. There's a couple questions in the chat already. So if everyone could not put any more questions in the chat so we can get these few done and then we'll start using the Q and A that Noel has set up. I believe there was a question about how can, excuse me, how can immigrant youth apply for step? That's why EP, sorry. So for any young person ages 14 to 24 that resides in New York City and has work authorization, they're welcome to apply through the program, the application online. So that includes, for example, if a young person is here with an asylum case and has been issued with a social security number and is able to apply for work, they're welcome to apply with that online. We also have a small program for young people who have barriers to SYEP and I'll share you see our contact information here if you want to reach out to me directly we can share some more information about our pathways program that provides an opportunity for young people with barriers to applying to SYEP and how they can get involved. And how can schools apply for their students or are schools allowed to apply for their students? It's a great question. Schools can definitely help their students apply. We can share I think Marisa already has it but we can share a toolkit for participants as well. Our deadline is coming up on Friday for young people to apply and so schools can help their students apply, they'll need to work with the student to make sure they have all of the students information that's required for the application. And I see schools can also host students as a work site if schools have job opportunities internship opportunities in the schools. We had about I believe 4,000 young people working in DOE schools or with DOE offices last summer so that's definitely an opportunity as well. Okay I'm going to go to the Q&A box now. I've hired terrific interns through Letters for Leaders several times before. Is Letters for Leaders the same as SYEP? That's a great question. Letters for Leaders is under the umbrella of SYEP. So we look at it almost as a capstone experience. For SYEP it's often a young person's first ever job. So you're looking to hire a young person who doesn't have past experience who's really looking for that mentorship that learning opportunity and a job that someone without past experience is able to do. For Letters the young people are required to have past work experience as well as a 3.0 GPA. So the structure of the program is the same. The young people just have a little bit more past experience. The only difference is SYEP is only 25 hours per week. But if you're a company or organization that has an existing internship program you want to hire young people directly you do have the opportunity to hire a young person for more of a full-time role more than six weeks paid directly by your organization. So the short answer is it's under the umbrella of SYEP. Are we allowed to interview the prospective candidates? For Letters for Leaders absolutely all of the candidates go through interviews. For SYEP because of the scale of the program we match the young people into their job opportunity based on their skills their background their interest. So there's not a formal interview process but you'll receive a roster of all of the participants with a little bit about them. And you'll also have an opportunity with many of our community partners to attend like a job fair to be able to meet the young people in advance of the program starting. I actually have a question at some point in the description of work or out of school. So that's SYEP, correct? SYEP is open to young people 14 to 24 regardless of their school status. How do students apply to be interns anonymous attendee you're talking about how do students apply to be interns. Amir do you want to take that one? Yes, students can apply through the SYEP application for basing participants. I can put that down in the link in the chat box. Joelle Blackstock do you choose the students that you host or does SYEP choose? That's the same question as do you interview? Yes, we match the participants based on the information that you provide us in your application. So you'll want to be as specific as possible in your application of the skills and the interests that you're hoping young people will have so that we can make that best match. Is it possible to provide a PDF of the work site application? I would like to pull together materials required in advance. Of course, yes, we can send that to Marisa and if you also want to send us your contact information through the chat here, we can send that to you as well. Okay, if you're a nonprofit that creates programming from young people and become a host of the work site, can you hire the students you already work with? That's a good question. So the young people will have to be enrolled in SYEP and then we can help to make that match. So if you have young people who are applied at SYEP and are enrolled, then we can definitely help to have them work with you over the summer because of the scale of the program. The opportunities are not currently guaranteed to young people. But after the point of enrollment, we can definitely help to connect you with back with those youth. For new employers participating in this initiative, are companies required to sign any agreements? Great question. Yes, in the online application you'll sign a work site assurances form electronically. This includes many of the details that we talked about today. For example, the maximum number of hours that the young person can work understanding that anything above and beyond those hours won't be paid directly by the city ensuring that you are providing the required ratio of supervisors to participants. So we can share a copy of that as well but that's within the work site application, the site assurances form. So that's what's happening. Is there a way to train all of our SYEP members before the program's launch to conduct professional development and training? It's a great question. So SYEP participants go through about eight hours of onboarding with community partners prior to the start of the program. So that includes workplace readiness as well as a mandatory sexual training program. So it's a great question. So it's a great question to speak with your community partner when you complete the application about what you're hoping young people can be oriented to prior to the start of the job. It's not required. So the young people won't be paid by SYEP for anything prior to July 5th. But if you're interested in offering an opportunity to do so, it's a great question. So it's a great question to speak with your community partner when you complete the application prior to the start of the program directly. That's also fine with us. This next question is something I've heard one other time. We've applied in the past and not received any interns. We are a stage in Brooklyn doing music videos, TV shows, fashion photography, etc. Now you know me. So reach out to me when you've applied this year so that I can support. I would say my tip would be when you're submitting your application, think about what makes your opportunity exciting for a young person. So while we'd love to just have a job ready person who has all these skills and qualifications and is ready to go to every level employee to have their support over the summer. That's not exactly what this program is. So if you can think about how your summer experience will not only benefit your organization but will also benefit the young people and include that in your application. I think that will help. But also please feel free to reach out to us so we can support you with that. I have a question also, Sarah. Are there any hours that are, I mean are the interns I've seen it's music videos and things like that. Is there any restriction on the hours of the day that interns can work? Yeah, as long as you're following local labor laws which we can provide a copy of what I might recommend for something like that is looking to hire SIP participants over the age of 18 which gives a little bit more flexibility because off the top of my head I believe for those under 18 they can't work past 10pm I want to say or before 6am so we just want to think about what type of young person would be best suited for the opportunity and also ensure that they're safe during their summer experience. Do you provide metro card or transportation stipend for the interns? Last summer we were able to for the first time provide metro cards to all SYEP participants and while that benefit is not finalized yet for the summer ahead we're hopeful that we'll be able to do that again in the future. For remote work should companies be expected to set up a virtual workstation to log into or will students have a workable station of their own asking as an animation company doing 3D animation using blender and open source software? Interesting question. Typically and the official answer is that we'd ask the employer to provide any equipment or software that the young people would require for the job. However, if you're a small organization and that might be a barrier to be able to host a young person and you're using open source software, our community partners that work with the young people might be able to help through for example the DOE to ensure that you're matched with a young person that has a laptop if the software is open source from understanding correctly and wouldn't require subscriptions. So definitely make note of that in your application. Is there a financial obligation to employers for participating in the program? I know the answer to this one. No, there is not. Correct. How is workers comp handled because the city of New York is the employer of record, right? So a young person's W2 will come through the city. They're covered under workers comp through the city. That will cover them for anything listed in your worksite application. So that's why it's important to include all of the details, right? The location where they'll be working, who their supervisor will be, what their hours will be, what their time will be. Jennifer Muldowne. What are the dates of the internship or are they flexible? No reason to apologize. By the way, we're going to have this whole set available to you if you want to watch it yourself. Amir, do you want to answer that question? Yes. So the SIP starts either July 5th or July 10th August 12th or August 19th depending on the cohort. However, if you do have an existing internship that you would like, an existing internship program within your own organization which will be paid through you, you have the opportunity, you have the chance to make your own schedule through your discretion. Is there any reporting required for SYEP? I'm not sure what that means. I'll take a stab and then if we don't answer your question, feel free to put it back in the chat. In terms of paperwork for the program, you'll fill out your application. The community partner that works with the young people will do a pre-assessment of your site to ensure safety and readiness for the start of the program. They'll also do assessments during the program. They'll be able to support you. That's paperwork that they fill out. You don't have to fill it out. What we ask of you is that you sign your participants time sheets each week to ensure that they get paid so that can be digitally or paper time sheets, whatever your preference. And then we do ask you to evaluate the young people at the end of the internship to ensure that they have constructive feedback on the question I get frequently. How have you handled in the past if an intern is not working out due to performance-related issues? Are we obligated to keep the intern for the entire six weeks? You are not obligated. We want to work with you to address any issues. So if there's any incidents at your work site, we'd ask that you report it right away to your community partner. We'll be looking at the details of your work and your communication to your contact for SYEP. And they will work with you to determine the best course of action. So it's not required that the young person continues throughout the whole summer if there are insurmountable issues. This is youth development program, so this is why we have community partners who are experts in youth development to help work through those issues and see if they can be resolved. So we have a lot of questions that we have in the chat. So we'll start by asking. Okay. Sorry. No open questions. Really? We have answered every single question. Here we go. We have one in the chat. Yes. We have one in the chat. I don't see it in the chat. How do we accommodate scholars who have summer school? That's a really good question. If you're a young person, you can accommodate a young person that has a really, really high school or we can create a four-hourly schedule based on what works for you. And also you can help to accommodate young person schedule as well. So if you do have young people who are in summer school, you still want to host them for the program. You can create a schedule that could work person can't commit to that full opportunity. We offer the opportunity to host young people for as few as 75 hours over the six weeks. And we on our end supplement the remaining time with professional and technical development online for the young people. So if you're sitting here thinking, gosh, I would love to do this, but I really can't commit to 25 hours per week. I can only do 15. We'd still love to work with you and we'd supplement the students remaining hours to ensure that they receive their full opportunity over the summer. That's really great. Because someone also was asking me the other day about the same thing, and I really wasn't sure. Any other questions? And I don't see any. Do you know all? There is one question in the q&a. And just you, everybody knows you're totally free to continue asking questions. But if there are none more, you know, there are none more. We just answered the one about having not not enough time per week. Oh, okay. Sorry, I got my stuff there. Well, I'd also like to reiterate what Sarah said about passing this on to friends, because it's really a fantastic program for both industry and the young people and for the economy of New York. Because if we build a good workforce, and the best place to start building something is from the ground up and the younger, the better. So please pass it on. Hi, Jennifer. Thank you very much. Is is it best to give them a project that we can begin and finish with us? Meaning that intern? That's a question. You know, that's a good question. I think what's most important is that the young people can see the value that they're contributing contributing to the organization. So something where they're starting and finishing a project is great, right? They can see the full scope. But oftentimes that's not realistic. Here at DYCD, personally, for our interns, we might have projects that aren't finished, but we still ask all of our interns to present to a group of our colleagues at the end of the summer of what they've worked on and what their recommendations are for the future. So that even if it's not a closed loop project that there is fully complete at the end of the summer, they can at least show what they've worked on and see how it's contributed to the organization. Oh, I'm sorry. I put in the application for the youth. Amir, could you put in the application link, not the PDF in the chat? Yes, I will. Yeah, I'll put the one for WorkSites and for youth in the chat. Okay, I did the one for youth already. Grace, it'll be a second. You'll get the link to the application. Another question. Curious for a first time participant, what types of internship opportunities are there in more corporate settings? We have a number of opportunities every year in corporate settings. I'll give you two examples. So one is through a number of real estate companies here in New York, who hire young people directly, they have existing internship programs that are highly competitive, full time, excuse me, recruiting participants like at the top of their class at Ivy League universities, but they're committed to also ensuring that they're hiring local New York City residents through the program. So these types of companies and in real estate, we happen to have a number of commitments from the industry. They use us as a recruitment pipeline, we help to sort through pre approved, pre trained young people in our program. And we help prepare them for high level internships so that they can compete amongst those top university students across the country in sometimes across the world. They're working in office settings, both in person as well as some remote opportunities for corporate companies that haven't yet come back to the office full time. Another example is we currently place interns through Paramount Global. They're committed to a number of youth facing youth employment programs across the city. And we're very lucky to work with them to be able to offer positions in a number of their departments every summer where they hire young people to work in their different business units, right? Some people working with CBS Research last summer, others working in like IT and data analytics, others working in more media focused business units. I just wanted to bring it to your attention to the attendees that have been asking. Now in the chat, if you look over, you'll see the application for youth, which is those who want to be interns, and also the application for a work site or an employer, which all of you are application, they're both in the chat right now. I see no other questions. Anybody else? Oh, is 25 hours a week the max or can the intern do 35 hours one week and then 15 the next basically juggling hours when needed? We want the young people to work a maximum of 25 hours in the week. And we do understand that they might, you know, you might have last minute needs that come up and you need to adjust their schedules. But we hope that their maximum for the week would be 25 hours. If you wanted to hire them for longer, you're welcome to hire them directly and we can help with the recruitment. I would like to offer free summer breakfast and a safe haven haven haven, I think they mean for kids who don't have anywhere to go. Also a place for IGBTQ. I think that's LGBTQ to have a meetup space for them to be their self and help. Others feel comfortable coming out. I have an open space that fits 40 people just wants to know if this will be a good fit. Sarah. Sure, I don't know your name, but we'd love to talk to you more about that. You can definitely feel free to reach out to us. SIP in particular, we want this to be a job or internship opportunity. So if this opportunity might include, you know, tasks and roles where they can contribute back to your organization. Great. If not, and it's a fit for another one of D Y CDs funded programs, which it sounds like it might be we're happy to connect you. D Y CD offers not only youth workforce development initiatives, but after school programs, summer camps, and a range of services for New Yorkers across the city. One last question, you can ask as many as you want. I understand the age requirement. Can you clarify if the young people are required to be actively in high school or college? No, there's no school requirement as long as they are within the age range. Well, while folks think if they have any last questions, I'll say that it's often a great opportunity if you might be looking to hire for your organization in the fall to hire a young person who's not in high school or college who might be looking for a full time job opportunity, because SIP is basically a free, you know, six week job interview, right? You can see what they're like in the role in a similar role with the opportunity to have them continue on with you permanently if it makes sense. Can the employer request a college age intern? Yes, you can request whatever you'd like in your application and our community partners will do their best to match you with someone that meets what you're looking for. Anyone else? I think this was a very interesting webinar with all of the great questions. If there are no other questions going once going twice, we will bid you all adieu and take advantage of the wonderful weather outside. Remember, as you see on this slide, there are two places where you can reach out to Sarah and to Amir. Please take the time to copy that down. Also, we'll be sending out a follow up email with information and links and whatnot. So thank you so much and pass the word to all your friends about what a great, great job opportunity and intern opportunity this is. And thank you, Sarah. Thank you, Amir. Thank you, Aliyah. And of course, thank you, Noel. Bye everybody.
