StreetWise Partners Inc
NEW YORK, New York
We are on a mission to drive career mobility and ensure that adults from under-served communities can develop strong professional fluency and resiliency. Our comprehensive mentoring, career coaching and job placement program empowers job seekers with skills, social capital and self-trust to achieve financial stability through meaningful employment.
StreetWise Partners serves economically vulnerable job seekers in NYC and DC
with critical mentorship to unlock careers traditionally unavailable to them. Our mentees
are all adults, 18 years or older, who are working in low-wage jobs and/or pursuing higher
education. Many are first-generation college students or skilled immigrants. All are from
overlooked and under-resourced communities. They come to us for the tools, resources, and access needed to achieve careers offering financial stability. We provide them with a
volunteer mentor who guides them through a curriculum of soft skills and job readiness
lessons such as resume writing, interviewing, networking, and public speaking.
