About Aspire:
Aspire is First Work's career exploration initiative connecting young people facing barriers to employment with careers and industries they would otherwise never experience. In doing so, youth broaden their career aspirations by learning about the range of industry specific career opportunities available.
These events take place in cities across Ontario each year. Aspire career exploration events are designed in partnership with Employment Service organizations specializing in employment supports for youth, to ensure that further career navigation supports are available to participating youth.
