On November 15, more than 400 guests gathered at the InterContinental Boston in a remarkable show of support for the students of NECC. The evening, which raised $1.27 million, was a celebration of growth, opportunity, and the transformative impact of NECC’s vocational program.
NECC students Bobby and Aliaz were recently recognized as Employees of the Month by Apex Entertainment for their hard work and dedication to their vocational jobs at the company.
NECC’s Vocational Program allows students aged 14 and older to work up to four hours a week either in the community or within the school through NECC’s Career Development Center. Students like Anders learn important skills through jobs like his at J. White Automotive in Bellingham.
