Forest Hills Patch | by Nathan Duke
Forest Hills’ Queens Community House has been awarded a grant to develop an initiative that would help young adults find jobs.
A collaboration of four borough-based organizations headed by the community house were given the grant through JobsFirstNYC’s Young Adult Sectoral Employment Project, which aims to find work for persons between the ages of 18 and 24 years whose job prospects have been affected by the economic downturn.
Queens Community House’s partners in the project include Long Island City’s Jacob A. Riis Neighborhood Settlement House, Sunnyside Community Services and Arverne’s Ocean Bay Community Development Corporation.
