CAREER DISCOVERY PROJECT SPOTLIGHT
Liam’s ambitions came to fruition due to the Career Discovery Program (CDP) at City Access New York. Liam admires Japanese culture and presently majors in dramatic arts in school and desired a job backstage in a theater. CDP discovered a perfect match that blends Liam’s passion for theater and Japanese culture. The program’s dorm proximity provides the accessibility that Liam requires. The duties include wardrobe assistance, visitor services, and acting support for the program.
