It is so awesome to see the YouthWorks program up and running for the third year in a row! The Youth Center received a $203,127.74 contract from the State to run an income-eligible summer employment program. This program is supported by the Commonwealth Corporation under the Commonwealth of Massachusetts YouthWorks Program and MassHire Central Career Center. Through this program, the Center will oversee 30 youth employees at 11 worksites, including: Milford Youth Center, Milford Facilities Department, Milford Parks Department, Milford Town Hall, Milford Food Service Department, Nutriforia Nutrition, Double Bubble Laundromat, Milford TV, Vernon Grove Cemetery, Platinum Enterprises and Milford Summer Basketball, allowing additional help at each location at no cost to their individual departments and/or businesses. 
Once again, we would like to thank the multiple organizations, listed above, for this opportunity. We would also like to give a HUGE shoutout to our team who have worked so hard to get this program up and running and successful: Sam Bonvino, Maddy Bonvino, Josh Connolly, Jason Luchini, Emily Stienstra and Jen Ward! We would also like to thank the Town Benefits department for helping with all of the hiring paperwork and Ron Auger for conducting CPR lessons for all participants!
