we're HIRING 

What is Prodigy all about? It's all in the name.

​

The powerful truth is that the next great contributors are already here: the young adults just beyond our everyday periphery. 

The city's unlikely prodigies.

the challenge

Our country’s education and employment structures are largely outdated, ineffective, and inequitable, especially for youth on the margins. 

This leaves us vulnerable and inefficient as we train the next generation for the new economy.

the work

PRODIGY APPRENTICESHIPS

Young adults disconnected from school and/or work are invited into a year-long apprenticeship as humble learners of life, self, and craft, within a high standards enterprise.

the outcome

PERSONAL GROWTH

Through deep work and deep learning, apprentices build skills, mindsets, networks and economic capital for sustainable careers, and most importantly, discover their own inherent greatness.

the impact

PERSONAL & COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION

​

Apprentices have secured meaningful, sustainable employment and are leaders in their community.  This, in turn, builds wealth for marginalized Northeast Denver residents.
