Recruiting & Retaining Today’s Youth Workforce with First Work

August 12, 2025 Share on your social channels

As the sector that provides the greatest number of first-time jobs, leads in sustainability practices, and actively champions social justice in communities across the country, we are uniquely positioned to continue attracting young talent. Today’s youth bring a heightened awareness and expectation around environmental and social impact, and it is important that we continue to clearly communicate the meaningful work already happening across our sector. By doing so, we can strengthen awareness among young people, continue to draw them in, and reinforce our identity as a values-driven, community-focused sector.

RC has partnered with FirstWork to develop practical toolkits designed to support your workforce strategies. These resources will help you stay best-in-class in recruitment and retention practices.
