Northwest Shoals Community College (NWSCC) has partnered with the Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) to provide summer employment to youth in the area starting June 2.
NWSCC plans to employ up to 30 part-time positions on the Phil Campbell and Shoals campuses combined. To be eligible, youth must meet Alabama Department of Human Resources Family Assistance Income Guidelines.
Eligible participants must be ages 16 to 24 and have a household income that meets the 2025 Federal Poverty Guidelines, which considers gross annual income and the size of the family unit. Eligibility for summer youth employment is not contingent on NWSCC enrollment.
The Summer Youth Employment Program allows participants an opportunity to acquire life and job skills, as well as work experience. Participants will learn time management, dependability, and the importance of working well with others. They will be placed with supervisors in various departments such as athletics, maintenance, information technology, student services, and grant programs.
The program will continue through August 15, 2025. Students will be paid $10 an hour for 19 hours per week.
Applicants must complete an application and provide required supporting documentation to verify income eligibility. To apply, visit
nwscc.edu/community-matters. Completed applications and income verification documents can be sent via email or dropped off in person at either campus. If eligible, you will be contacted with next steps to begin the hiring process.
