Though higher education is important and resources are needed to encourage and help get Latino and Black youths on a path to a college degree, for many, entering the trades or finding a different avenue to secure a good job is imperative and an “equal path to success,” said Quabeeny Daniels, a community organizer with the Southwest Organizing Project, a nonprofit that aims to advance racial equity and economic justice.
Youths in the South and West sides are “underprivileged and do not always get recognized. There are few opportunities and chances given to us, but PepsiCo hasn’t ignored us,” Brewer said. That investment can encourage youths — many in high-risk areas — to divert their free time into opportunities rather than street violence, Daniels said. For others, the job-readiness programs provide hope for youths and their families, many from low-income households.
