Great video. How many of these positions are paying jobs? And how are your clients are given the opportunity to apply for these jobs

Thank you so much, John! Excellent question :) Two of the individuals working at the Discovery Cube have seasonal positions and Nina Adel, the final interviewee, has a career with our agency as a College to Career Peer Mentor for Tierra's NEXUS program. Tierra's Workforce Development program focuses on career exploration and skill development with the goal of meaningful paid employment or professional volunteerism placement. Based on the individual’s identified career path, Tierra develops integrated employment opportunities for each viable candidate. We currently have 30 amazing business partners who have hired our clients and we are actively working to uncover more partners that would be interested in collaborating with us. In addition to providing career opportunities to the men and women we serve, our partners find hiring Tierra clients is great for enhancing their company's diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. If you'd like more info, please visit tierradelsol.org, or email me, Janice Estrada, TIerra's Marketing and Communications Manager, at [e-mail]. Thanks for watching and we hope you will share this with your family and friends!!!
