Public & Community Services Career Path

The public and community services pathway centers on careers that help people of all ages maintain or regain emotional and mental health. Students could become social workers or counselors or apply their skills in analysis and attention to detail in the criminal justice field or courts. You could care for people and their families when they die or join the ranks of first responders in firefighting or as a paramedic or EMT. This pathway also lays the groundwork for a career in political science, psychology, or sociology.
