Youth Participant Laura Ochoa Laura Ochoa has been in our OK Works – My Career, My Choice program since June Laura was enrolled in the youth program during the summer before her junior year in high school. During her relatively short time as participant in our program she has opened herself to new and exciting opportunities. She has completed our Smart Work Ethics training and various other workshops, such as workshops on financial literacy and entrepreneurship. Currently, she is working in a Work Experience at TechJOYnT as a Facilitator Coordinator, where she has the opportunity to set up classes, assist with the parents, and interact with the youth participants. Becoming involved in the Work Experience has brought a new light to Laura, she has told her coach multiple times that she really enjoys the work that she is doing. She is also getting glowing reviews from the Site Supervisor. The best part about it, is that this is the first job that Laura has had and the program helped her find a good fit! When Laura graduates from high school, she would like to work on getting into some kind of human services field. She states that she really enjoys being around children and that she would like to be able to interact with people as a profession.
