Genesys Works is a non-profit organization that provides pathways to career success for emerging young professionals from historically excluded communities. Genesys Works is based in Houston, TX and has expanded to serve thousands of students annually in several cities across the United States. The non-profit company's program includes 8 weeks of technical and professional skills training, paid internships with major companies, college and career coaching, and alumni support. The goal of the organization is to build career opportunity and economic equity in every community so that all people have equitable access to career opportunities leading to sustained economic mobility. The company is actively expanding career pathways and opportunities for youth from underserved communities while filling critical talent gaps by providing training, support, and internships to trailblazing young people who have big career aspirations, but little to no access to the networks needed to help them achieve their dreams.
