The Employment/Learning/Mentoring (ELM) Support Program is a grass-roots high school youth employment program that is in the Phase I stage of development. The ELM Program would like to hire 2-4 high school urban youth during the 2007-2008 school year for the purpose of training high school youth in job readiness skills, monitoring their school progress in academics, attendance and college preparation and mentoring these individuals through character development, civic leadership and their personal integrity. ELM Project youth are selected from the ongoing relationship from neighborhood networking, Earthen Vessels Outreach (EVO) basketball team, and EVO's summer camp.
