Job Corps is a program administered by the US Department of Labor. It is a program that helps people will little or no skills get training and eventually a regular job. You get paid while you are in training - as long as you meet the requirements and do what you are required to do.
Go to FirstGov.gov and enter the Department of Labor. When you get to that website, look for Job Corps. Good Luck.

There are sometimes local programs, check with your nearest high school counselor, community college or just type in jobcore on yahoo and get some leads.
