The vast majority of young men (I8 -28) in Santa Ana do not own cars nor do they have driver's licenses, elements viewed as essential to employment in the Southern California job market. TSJ Tech addresses these barriers through intensive classroom instruction, hands -on training, and effective adult mentoring to address barriers to employment.

This is accomplished through on -site building projects, classroom work, life skills training, and employability development. The training model focuses on three key areas: Hard Skills Development — work experience, Employability Development —job preparation, and Life Skills Development — on -going personal development.
