Earn2Learn is a youth-employment program that provides Oakland youth with training and employment opportunities. This year participants have been able to work with local businesses such as Sankofa African Arts and Jewelry, Flax Art Store, and Community Foods Market amongst many others.
The goal of the program is to provide youth in Oakland an opportunity to earn income while developing their employment skills, and building self-esteem through work experience. Earn2Lean is managed by AHC in coordination with Lao Family Community Development Inc. and the Oakland Housing Authority.
