Adulting doesn't have to be hard.
"Adulting" can be hard. JobX works with eligible youth to set and achieve individual goals such as earning a GED, high school diploma, career certifications (welding, construction, CNA, and more), driver's license, paid internships, and employment. JobX also provides career guidance, incentives, and support to help you meet your goals.
