AGE: 24
EMPLOYER: Walgreens
DATE EMPLOYED: October 2023

Bianca is a 24 year old working mother who joined YJC to utilize the many resources and connections we provide clients. Bianca has always wanted to attend nursing school to become a NICU nurse but was unsure of how to reach this goal. Bianca heard of our Healthcare Training Program and knew it was the best path for her to begin exploring the healthcare field and learning more about her interests. Bianca has excelled in the training program and recently began a paid work experience with Walgreens as a Pharmacy Technician. She shared that she is excited about the opportunity as it will be a helpful stepping stone to her future healthcare career. 

Bianca has also utilized YJC’s Financial Opportunity Center. Here she learned more about savings, building credit, and the importance of maintaining a good credit score. She shared that our Financial Coach helped her open her very first savings account and pay down credit cards! Bianca shared that she hopes other clients take advantage of the many programs YJC offers and ask questions. “Your Career Coach can help you find out if something can be done or not and how long it will take to complete. If I could go back in time, I would tell myself to open up to my Career Coach quicker, they are here to help” Bianca shared. 

Way to go Bianca! The entire YJC team is proud of your success.
