Community Counseling and Mediation (CCM) is a leading Brooklyn-based behavioral health organization committed to improving the lives of at-risk children and families through innovative behavioral health, supportive housing, education, and youth services.

The Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) and Work, Learn & Grow Employment Program (WLG) places high school-aged youth in subsidized and monitored positions in the community. Youth are encouraged to complete their high school education while developing employability and leadership skills.

Our SYEP & WLG provides services on job readiness skills, resume writing, dress for success, role models, connections to internships, and learning work norms and culture to school-based youth ages 14 to 24. Our program also provides services to vulnerable youth who are challenged and have barriers to work, and to youth who are involved in the foster care system, homeless or runaway youth, or justice-involved.
