Local leaders talk teen jobs

TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now)- Remember that first job?  It was a big part of growing up and today
local leaders want to help teens get started in the work force this summer.

Whether it was working at the
mall or a restaurant, these early jobs started to teach the young employees important
skills and about hard work. 

That is why today city leaders
are turning to employers, asking them to take a look at their needs for this
summer, and to consider hiring teens for positions they may have.

While the job market is tough on
all, it has been rough on young people especially.  The unemployment rate among teens nationally
stands at 24.2 percent.

At the event today Mayor
Rothschild will be joined by United Way and Pima One Stop in discussing job
opportunities for local teens.  Both of
these groups have summer youth programs helping teens get started in the work
force. 

Air quality low this morning due to windy conditions

PIMA COUNTY, AZ (Tucson News Now)- This morning the Pima County
Department of Air Quality is keeping an eye on the amount of particulates in the
air. 

Right now they say it is moderate,
but officials are warning those with heart disease
and breathing sensitivities should cut back on outdoor activities today. 

When residents can see the dirt
and dust picking up in the air, like what is happening this morning, it is
especially true.

News Now weather app, to help get you ready to head out the door any time of
the day.
