ABOUT OPERATION FRESH START: OFS programs are designed for a critical time in life: the transition to adulthood. They provide a path forward for emerging adults through mentoring, education, and employment training. OFS program participants earn their high school diploma, driver’s license, and certifications in the construction and conservation fields, and gain college/career readiness skills. Program participants are all also giving back to the community – building affordable homes for low-income families, and completing conservation projects and environmental justice work in city and county parks. After program completion, OFS staff continue to support program graduates as they transition into post-secondary education and/or self-sustaining employment.

Through this program, unemployed and/or underemployed young people will transition into long-term employment opportunities.
HOURS: This is a full-time position with a 3-day weekend. Scheduled work hours are 7:15 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Occasional flexing of hours may be required.
