Charlotte is stronger when our children and youth are thriving. Youth programs support the improvement of life outcomes for our youngest citizens and improve the quality of life of our city, our neighborhoods, and our families.
Mayor's Youth Employment Program (MYEP) Works with local businesses to provide Charlotte area high school aged youth with exposure to jobs and industries as well as career-oriented experiences.
