    WorkForce High

    Workforce High - a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization - is a collaboration of like-minded individuals and entities working together to address some of the most serious issues affecting economically distressed communities. It is a workforce development program for disadvantaged young people, built on a foundation of entrepreneurship. Through individual entrepreneurial pursuits, Workforce High students acquire transferable workforce skills which they later apply in our bridge program, apprenticeships, and future employment.

    Students What They Say

    Testimonials

    My kids need something where they can work at home, go to school and be hands on. They won’t stop talking about it.

    This is the best kept secret in Austin (Chicago).

    The curriculum of Workforce High changed my life. I accomplished what I never thought that I could.

    Workforce High is what we need. We need to work and go to school and it should be fun.

    Dejon

    Dejon

    Dejon, a recent META24 graduate and young “soap” entrepreneur, describes META24 as life-changing. “At first, I didn’t think that I could possibly own a business or run a retail store in my own neighborhood. But I launched an all-natural soap business, broke even and continued to invest in my business. Now, I am planning on going to college close to home to raise my son and hire folks from my neighborhood to run my business,” he says. “I didn’t think that I could possibly own a business in my own neighborhood... Now I am planning to... hire folks from my neighborhood to run my business.”
