Bank of America recently announced that the five Chicago area high school juniors and seniors selected as Student Leaders (#BofAStudentLeaders) have started their paid summer internship experience of workforce skills, leadership, and civic engagement with local nonprofits Northern Illinois Food Bank and Boys and Girls Clubs of Chicago. Similar to last year, the program has been adapted to a virtual format.
Without access to career skills-building opportunities like the Student Leaders program, many young people may be left behind from a fast-changing job market, leading to higher rates of youth unemployment.
