Please join us in congratulating the Aerospace Internship Class of 2020!
This year, 42 high school students graduated from the AIP with valuable work-readiness skills and hands-on experience working in the aerospace industry. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 school closures, their time was cut short in March, but interns were able to continue working towards their National Career Readiness Certificate from home.
Skills would like to express our gratitude to the interns for their hard work and dedication to the program. We would also like to thank everyone that had a hand in their success including family and friends, instructors, supervisors, mentors, school administrators, community partners and donors.
This year’s theme is “Shared Success” which highlights how we—individually, as a team, and as an organization—help one another to reach our full potential.
We invite you to view a digital copy and encourage you to forward it to others that may have an interest.

On May 18th, Skills Inc. partnered with the City of Auburn to host the 2nd Annual 5K for Abilities. Hundreds of participants joined us for a beautiful and fun filled morning while we increased disability awareness, built community relationships, and celebrated people of all abilities.
We were honored to have so many community members and partners show their support, including Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus who started the race off. A big thanks to all that helped make this event such a success!
