Mission

White Hall Arts Academy knows that opening the door to a job is life-changing for any young person, especially those facing economic and social challenges. Our goal is to prepare teens and young adults aged 14 - 21 to enter the work force through work experience

Throughout the employment period, program participants work to achieve the following goals:

 

  • Acquire critical skills

  • Interact with customers

  • Learn professional behaviors

 

Teens who participate in the program gain valuable work experience, develop job skills and build their self-esteem and confidence.
