September is National Guide Dog Month. It's important to remember that guide dogs should not be distracted from their job. Please avoid petting, talking to, or offering them food. Keep your pet leashed and respect the space of guide dogs and their handlers.

Thursday's Host Site Appreciation Event at The Strong Museum of Play wrapped up the 2024 program and celebrated all the wonderful local businesses that hosted this year's Summer Youth Employment (SYEP) and Summer of Opportunity Program (SOOP) participants. The event also featured an amazing performance by one of our SOOP host sites, Roc City Players, a local youth theatre. RochesterWorks extends a heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of these programs, with special thanks to the City of Rochester, Monroe County, Mayor Malik Evans, and Assemblyperson Demond Meeks joining us at the event as well as for your continued partnership and support. SYEP and SOOP provide Rochester and Monroe County youth ages 14-20 with six weeks of paid summer work experience through work sites and programs all across Monroe County.
