Save SYEP
I joined SYEP because I want to have more experience and really know how to work also to acquire skills that I had never learned before. This program, which helps us to have more work experience, also helps us meet new people.
SYEP is important to my family and me because my family does not have a very high income and because that helps us to get experience and to make money to help us as much as we can.
I would like to tell the mayor that it is not a good decision for us young people to cut the SYEP because like me there are many more young people who need money because income has dropped a lot so we have to help at home.
Now is a time that we really need this program, all of us have the possibility of doing the program from home as we are taking the classes online and that helps us even more.
