Looking for information
Hello, I have started the application process for Job Corps and have come to the subreddit here for several questions I have regarding the experiences found at different centers.
I'm wondering if anyone here has any specific tips to acquire housing after my time there is done.
From what I understand, LTE and paid WBL are necessary to save up the finances necessary for such a thing.
However, I also hear mixed accounts of the ability of the counsellors to help you find and prepare for something like that. I want to know people's experiences in facilities in PA/NY with this. I'd also like, if possible, to hear opinions on what kind of trades at these places will help me be more successful upon completion.
I am in a desperate situation due to a toxic family, and this has been a last resort option for me. I want to do everything I can to get something out of this.
