Palmer Pathways
We are excited to announce our newest initiative which serves disconnected young adults between the ages of 18-26 in our community. Through the Palmer Pathways Pre-Apprenticeship, we serve talented young adults who are not currently employed or enrolled in school and are interested in pursuing a career in the trades. Scholars selected to participate in the Palmer Pathways Pre-Apprenticeship will participate in over 345 hours of training geared toward empowering them to identify their strengths, clarify their career interests, and identify the best-fit career path. Graduates of the 14-week program earn up to 8 certificates, receive mentorship, financial support, and direct or preferred entry into a number of apprenticeships.

Our Legacy Program serves current high school juniors within Pierce County that are interested in furthering their education beyond high school. We go above and beyond to ensure the success of our Scholars, and participation in our program required a high level of commitment.
