WHAT WE DO AND WHY Futures and Options believes that all young people deserve a chance to achieve their potential in life and a career, and that New York City needs a diverse and prepared workforce. To this end, Futures and Options partners with the business community to provide transformative work and learning opportunities to motivated young people who lack the skills, knowledge, and access needed to succeed in the world of work.
HOW DO WE DO IT?
WHY DO WE DO IT THIS WAY?
By teaching valuable professional and life skills in engaging workshops
To provide opportunities for young people to acquire and practice essential work and life skills
By partnering with businesses and professionals to provide actual paid jobs, in addition to career exploration, mentoring, and networking opportunities
To foster their self-confidence and faith in their abilities
By supporting young people and employers while they work
To prepare them to be competitive in the labor market and meet the diverse needs of the business community
By learning and understanding what businesses need from the workforce By training other professionals to deliver high-quality career development programs
6
To enable them to experience firsthand the dignity and responsibility of work
Because early work experience has a proven positive impact on a young person’s long-term career and income trajectory
OUR FLAGSHIP PROGRAMS
OUR SUPPORTING PROGRAMS
Career Essentials provides workreadiness training and career exploration to middle and high school students. Students attend weekly workshops on topics such as interviewing, time management, and resume writing, and go on career exploration field trips to different companies for a firsthand look at the working world.
College Guidance Initiative offers group workshops to prepare high school students for the college application and selection process. One-on-one assistance with college and financial aid applications is also provided.
The Internship Program provides paid, mentored internships and career-readiness workshops to teens 16 to 20 years old. Students acquire hands-on work experience, gain entry to small businesses, nonprofits, government agencies, and multinational corporations, and earn needed money.
High School Success provides continued work-readiness and career exploration activities to high school students who have graduated from Career Essentials and the Internship Program; these students also work with a collegeaged alumna/ae mentor to help them navigate college applications, selecting a college, and choosing a major.
College Success supports our students in their first years in college by providing working professional mentors who offer guidance as the students navigate their way through college and plan for future careers. Students are also invited to attend events focused on networking, career exploration, and work-readiness skills.

Caroline says, “A sense of civic responsibility has always been intrinsic to how the company operates. Year after year, we look forward to hosting an intern from the New York City public school system.”
It is the opportunity to have this kind of lasting impact on a young person that keeps Caroline coming back to supervise a Futures and Options intern each summer. “Of course, interns learn new practical skills linked to their work. More striking and perhaps even more important, however, is the personal confidence they gain week after week.
