Moving Up

Congratulations to the youth participants of our GED/Workforce Development program who achieved academic and professional excellence!

Nine students recently received their GED certification and two have obtained jobs. 15 students also received the National Retail Federation (NRF) certificate that recognizes the knowledge and critical skills recipients must have in order to succeed in the retail industry.

Students have access to a wider range of opportunities with GED and NRF certification and are ready to tackle the workforce or higher education. YWCA of Queens staff and participants celebrated these achievements with a Moving Upward party and we look forward to hearing of their future successes!
