Project Launch
Providing teens with a roadmap for a happy life.
October, February, June
Project Launch is a weekend-long intensive workshop that provides Prescott teens (in the Tri-City area) with the ‘Competitive Advantage’ they need to compete in an aggressive job market.. The program is geared for teens ages 14 – 18.
Some of the topics covered in the program are:
- The Art of Effective Communication
- How to Nail an Interview
- Effective Teamwork
- Time Management
- Conversation Starters and Networking
- How to Deal With Difficult People
- Importance of GRIT
- Leadership Skills
- and much more.
After teens complete the workshops, they receive a Certificate of Completion. Project Launch also assists teens in obtaining summer internships and employment with area businesses. Teens who complete Project Launch also receive a Letter of Recommendation. The skills gained in Project Launch are not only critical for success in the workplace but provide teens with an excellent roadmap for a happy life.

THE MOON CAFE
Get your experience in the coolest coffee shop in town!
“The Moon Cafe” is open to the public M-F from 6:30AM- 2PM, as the cafe is only open to youth in the afternoon and evenings. Community members are encouraged to come by and get a coffee or sandwich and work in our amazing lounge area during the day. It is a great way to support our local youth and the entire menu at the cafe is delicious!
The Cafe is run by our teen apprentices who are paid and trained to do everything from make smoothies, sandwiches, and pouring fancy coffee drinks, to running a small business and managing a team.
Contact Natalie Amadio at Natalie@thelaunchpadteencenter.org or (928) 227-0758 ext: 5 to find out how to participate.
