It is important for youth serving agencies to demonstrate their commitment to their clients. While governments come and go, youth and youth employment remain important political issues no matter which party gets elected. First Work has been around for more than 20 years, gaining the ear of MPPs, MPs, and policy makers throughout changes in employment programs and changes in governments.
First Work has more than 20 years of
youth employment advocacy experience.
Affiliating with us helps agencies prepare to serve an important element of our community – our future leaders. First Work’s services help members to improve their individual efforts in local communities while gaining a province wide network.
Through their involvement with First Work our members demonstrate their long-term commitment to youth and to youth employment. Members can also use our logo, window decals and other promotional items to dispay publicly, demonstrating their commitment.
We get questions about membership all the time, so we’ve made becoming a member easy. If your organization is not yet a part of First Work, simply download the New Member form from our
membership page or speak with Bunny Godman at 416 323 9557 x230 or

Thank you for your continued interest in First Work as we aim to improve youth employment in Ontario and Canada. Together we can build a better future for our youth.
