Kevin, unemployed at the time, enrolled in The Workforce Connection’s Elevate Youth program in August of 2024. Kevin would often ride along with a cousin, who was a CDL-driver, and found that he really enjoyed going and learning about it. He would often think to himself, “I could be like him one day.”

 Kevin learned about the Elevate program and various other resources at a meeting he attended. He stated he picked the “best one” for him. While in Elevate, he successfully completed the CDL class. He wanted others to know that the program helped him financially. The program is flexible and willing to help…financially, physically, and it’s easy to access.

 

We are happy to share that Kevin is now the proud holder of Class A-CDL and is employed as a truck driver for a local agency.
