Street Job Project
Street Job is a six month long group work experience for 10 'street youth' between the ages of 16 and 24 who are unemployed and out of school. Meant as an alternative to pan-handling the Street Job participants work on a number of community development projects of benefit to others in the area, while gaining much needed first job experience. Street Job is now in its fourth incarnation.

“I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning

If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
