Last week, two participants in our Amigos Mentoring Program had the opportunity to explore career paths that align with their interests and future goals.

🍽️ Adrian and his mentor visited The Smoke Shop BBQ, where he learned more about restaurant operations, kitchen management, customer service, and what it takes to succeed in the culinary industry. As someone who loves cooking and dreams of one day opening his own restaurant, it was an exciting chance to see the profession up close.

🏥 Crismael and his mentor attended an open house at Lawrence General Hospital for students interested in healthcare careers. He explored different areas of the hospital and learned about the many educational and career opportunities available in healthcare and medicine.

Experiences like these help young people connect their interests to real-world possibilities. By introducing them to local businesses, organizations, and professionals, we're helping them envision future educational, internship, and career opportunities right here in our community.

A special thank you to The Smoke Shop BBQ and Merrimack Health's Lawrence General Hospital for helping make these experiences possible! 💙
