We believe education must go beyond the classroom to prepare students for college, career, and life.

Carver provides pathways — paid internships — to career success for our 11th and 12th-grade students through skills training, meaningful work experiences, and impactful relationships.

We envision a future where all young adults are equipped and empowered with the knowledge and skills required to achieve career success, upward mobility, and a lifetime of economic self-sufficiency.

Our partnerships with leading companies and organizations, such as Norwalk Hospital, are vital to fulfilling our mission to provide pathways to career success for young adults. By providing equitable access to meaningful work opportunities, leading companies are instrumental in breaking down the barriers to economic opportunity for our students.

As high schoolers, Carver students receive business skills training, meaningful paid internships, and college and career counseling. Carver fuels their ambition so that their dreams become lifelong realities.

Investing in paid internships for Norwalk’s aspiring high school students is investing in a network that leads to a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive community. Our work affects students and profoundly impacts their families, workplaces, and society.

The Fairfield County Business Collaborative for Education Equity is one of our partners in Carver’s workforce development initiative.

Please help us create a future where all young people, regardless of race, ethnicity, or socio-economic status, have an equal chance to reach their full potential.
