Offering a Unique Solution to a Growing Nursing Home Workforce Challenge

Since 2006, SkillSpring has trained underserved youth to create a workforce pipeline in long-term care.

The SkillSpring program has helped teens and young adults in New York City pursue careers in health care since 2006. Program participants are immersed in long-term care settings and provide more than 8,000 hours of companionship and clinical care to older adults each year.

Alumni from our SkillSpring programs have access to resources from our Workforce program to help them meet academic and career goals.
