The training room team has quickly found ways to keep current trainees engaged in their learning from home and continue to make progress in the program. Youth continue to complete training modules and hold virtual website and portfolio presentations. Jilimarie Mojica not only completed the training, but interviewed remotely and was hired as a new training room intern! Jilimarie is filling a new role and providing outreach to those youth who have struggled to remain engaged during our changing circumstances. She is doing an outstanding job of making contact and getting youth re-engaged in the training.
