Every Camden high school graduate deserves to have a strong pathway to college and career. To realize that vision, CEF has collaborated with Big Picture Learning Academy, Camden Prep High School, and Mastery High School to create more opportunities for paid work-based learning to allow high school students to explore careers, develop professional skills, and build social capital necessary to thrive in their chosen postsecondary pathway.
Our goal is to create paid internship experiences for more than 500 students by 2028 – meaning that one out of every three Camden high school graduates will complete an internship at a local Camden industry partner.
