The Penobscot Nation Department of Education & Career Services is accepting applications for the 2025 Summer Youth Training Program.
Completed applications are due June 21, 2025, by 4pm.
Eligible youth will need to be between the ages of 14 and 21, be willing to actively demonstrate the maturity necessary to carry out the duties of the assigned work site, be an enrolled member of the Penobscot Nation, and meet the program income guidelines (attached to the application). All applications must include documentation of household income to be considered complete.
