Career Training & Opportunities
As part of the Trenton250 Community Health & Wellness Plan, we are providing a policy framework and action agenda — specifically for increasing opportunities and pursuit of physical activity for Trenton residents. A segment of the framework includes internships that give students an opportunity to explore careers in the Health & Fitness Industry.
Armani, for example, took advantage of our 8-week Internship Program — in partnership with HomeWorks Trenton and the Capital Area YMCA of Trenton. During this time, she developed a basic understanding of ‘Health & Fitness Industry’ professional skillsets, such as:
Kinesiology proficiencyHolistic-Performance supportThe ability to address muscle imbalancesProviding sufficient movement assessmentsInstructing oneself before instructing someone else
As Armani continues walking her path of Higher Education as a normal next step, she’s now equipped with real-world experience that caters to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
As a contributing factor to the Trenton250 Community Health & Wellness Plan, our 8-week internship program also highlights the relationship between health and other Trenton250 Master Plan elements (www.trenton250.org).
We predict that implementation of the strategies described in the Community Health and Wellness Plan, as well as the other Trenton250 Master Plan elements, will lead to materialchanges in City of Trenton NJ – City Hall’s economic, social, and physical environment over time, which will improve the health and wellness of Trenton residents.
