Intern Spotlight: Dajahari“I came back to Right Track for multiple summers because they placed me into jobs that helped develop my professional skills and gave me the opportunity to see what it is like to work in different workplace settings. It made me feel prepared as I moved into other positions. Whether I was working at a library or in a corporate setting, Right Track supported me while I developed meaningful connections and discovered what work interests me.”
Right Track is a public-private-non-profit collaborative led by the City of Saint Paul Parks and Recreation Department. In 2019 financial support was provided by the City of Saint Paul, the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, Community Development Block Grant, and the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce.

“Working with my intern was really my highlight this
summer. She persevered when asked to keep working on a
project that took much longer than expected and kept a
good attitude throughout the summer.”
- 2019 Employer
Right Track is a public-private-non-profit collaborative led by
the City of Saint Paul Parks and Recreation Department. Partner organizations host
interns, pay for youth wages, and provide training and enrichment opportunities.
Without our partners, Right Track wouldn’t be able to offer the wide variety of
opportunities that youth can participate in learning from. Thank you for your continued
support!
