Linked with For Foster Youth, OFA Internships offer much more than a Foot in the Door.

• If today’s job market is competitive for all who seek employment, imagine how much more challenging it is for young people without a base of family support, friendly connections or work experience to rely on. For these youth, good paying skilled jobs are out of reach – and internships are very difficult to secure.
• OFA believes that workforce preparation is essential for the 26,000 youth aging out of foster care each year. Our InternAmerica program is geared toward much more than just helping these young people get a foot in the door.
