Success Stories
Staci Clemons
Staci Clemons was enrolled into the Youth Opportunity Program from September 22, 2004 to September 2006. Staci loved and appreciated all that she learned from the Youth Opportunity Program workshops. She not only was assisted with developing her job skills, but YOP gave her a place where she could put those skills to work. Her first year on the program, she worked in retail where she learned how do deal with customers and how to keep the store neat and clean. In her second year, she was an office assistant at Los Banos Valley High School, where she learned a variety of office skills. Staci claims that her mentor gave her the needed training and experience to prepare her for her future.
Staci is currently attending Healds College in Fresno, where she is pursuing her Associates in Applied Science in Business with an emphasis on Legal Assisting and plans to graduate in April of 2009.
