THE CURRENT YES2JOBS IS BASED ON A PROGRAM THAT WAS FOUNDED IN 1987 AND LASTED FOR20 YEARS. THAT PROGRAM IMPACTED OVER 2000 PARTICIPANTS. THE MAJORITY CREDITS THEIRCURRENT SUCCESS IN LIFE, WHETHER IN ENTERTAINMENT OR OTHER CAREERS TO THEIREARLY EXPOSURE TO INTERNSHIPS AND EMPLOYMENT AS HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS 100+ COMPANIES HIRED 2,000+ STUDENT INTERNS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE LEVELS.1991 SAW Y.E.S. TO JOBS AWARDED AN NAACP IMAGE AWARD FOR OPENING THE DOORS OF THEENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY TO MINORITY YOUTH. THIS METHODOLOGY HAS A PROVEN TRACKRECORD OF SUCCESS. YES2JOBS HAS DONE ITS RESEARCH AND DISCOVERED THAT THE KEY PROBLEM IS THAT ZIPCODES DEFINE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY & ACCESS TO HIGHER EARNING CAREER PATHWAYS ANDTHAT THERE IS A LACK OF DIVERSITY IN THESE KEY HIGH PAYING INDUSTRIES. FOREXAMPLE, THE US TECHNOLOGY WORKFORCE IS 90% WHITE OR ASIAN AND 75% MALE. BLACK ANDLATINA/O GRADS EARN 21% OF COMPUTER SCIENCE DEGREES BUT REPRESENT ONLY 10% OFTECHNICAL COMPUTING WORKFORCE. 45% OF THEATRICAL TICKETS SOLD IN THE US WEREBOUGHT BY MINORITIES. HOWEVER, FOR THEATRICAL FILMS, MINORITIES WERE LESS THAN20% LEAD ROLES, 13% ARE FILM DIRECTORS AND 8% ARE FILM WRITERS, WHICH INDICATES ALACK OF DIVERSITY IN AT THE DECISION-MAKING LEVEL IN FILM AND TELEVISION. WE KNOWTHAT DIVERSITY IS GOOD FOR BUSINESS. A 2015 MCKINSEY REPORT ON 366 PUBLICCOMPANIES FOUND THAT, THOSE IN THE TOP QUARTILE FOR ETHNIC AND RACIAL DIVERSITY INMANAGEMENT WERE 35% MORE LIKELY TO HAVE FINANCIAL RETURNS ABOVE THEIR INDUSTRYMEAN. YES2JOBS PROVIDES A SOLUTION TO INCREASE DIVERSITY.
