Free session for women on stable, good-paying career options

YOUNGSTOWN

The YWCA of Youngstown in partnership with the Hard Hatted Women will present a free orientation session on good-paying and stable career options.

Women interested in learning about employment options are invited to attend the free Orientation to Trade and Technical Careers for Women session from 6 to 7 p.m. Thursday at the Newport Library, 3730 Market St.

The session will provide basic information about careers not often considered by women that offer good pay and benefits with opportunities for advancement.

Most of the careers featured require two years of training or less, or entering an apprenticeship program, and pay at least $12 an hour to start.
