Mayor Carlo DeMaria is pleased to announce the City of Everett Youth Services Department has launched the Youth and Young Professionals Program to give youth and young adults ages 17-25 the opportunity to develop workforce skills in a career of interest.

The City has revised its program based on feedback from local employers about their workforce needs.

The new program will allow interested applicants to work in a wide range of career fields for City departments. Some of the departments that are being offered are the Auditing Department, Department of Public Works (DPW), Engineering Department, Everett Community Television (ECTV) and Everett Fire Department.
