CAREER COMPASS

The Garage Career Compass is a program for youth between the ages of 14-18, which combines a summer-long paid internship funded by The Garage with a challenging life and leadership skills development curriculum.

Although Career Compass is a short-term program, our goal is to equip youth with transferable life, work-readiness, and leadership skills, along with the knowledge to actively support their community.

“It’s hard to put into words, but our experience was not only great for the intern, but also for our staff. Refreshing + Rewarding on so many levels!”

become a career compass host site

Career Compass is only possible when local businesses and organizations are willing to partner with us by hosting a Garage student as an intern at their site. We’re seeking applicants for our 2024 program, which will run from June 18 - July 26!
