Congratulations, JDC Graduates!

The Chamber congratulates eight (8) Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Graduates who completed the program on Thursday, August 8th at the Judiciary of Guam. Chamber member companies provide life skills workshops and incentives throughout the year which support students enrolled in the program. These member contributions provide a powerful role in contributing to their growth, knowledge, and aspiration. We wish the graduates success as they move forward in their lives.

 

About the Life Skills Program:

In partnership with the Judiciary of Guam – Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Program, we offer life skills for youth (17 and below) who have progressed to their final stages of the program. We try to have life skills sessions once a month, which usually take place on a Friday from 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm. We wanted to see if your company would be interested in hosting, feel free to email Rebekah Mendiola (Committee Liasion Specialist). It would be most helpful to have these clients exposed to the different career options that they may find interest in.

 

Past life skills workshops include: hotel tours and operations; auto dealerships ‘behind the scenes’; touring printing companies and seeing the back end of production; banking advice and beginner steps; and learning about marketing.

 

Wish to provide incentives? Your support of packaged chips and cookies or meal coupons is greatly appreciated! These will be given out to clients who do well during the program.


We would like to extend our warmest Si Yu'os Ma'åse to our amazing Chamber members for their wonderful contributions to the Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Program!
