About Us
A teen for every job and a job for every teen! 

TeenForce is a non-profit organization developing Los Gatos and Monte Sereno youth through skills training and on-the-job work experience. 
We accomplish our mission by operating a temporary employment agency exclusively for teenagers. This model makes it very convenient for local businesses and residents to hire pre-screened and eager teens for temporary and part-time assignments. We handle all the paperwork, tax filings, and insurance. All that you need to do is provide the opportunity!  
We are located at 101 Church Street, Suite 19 in Los Gatos. We are open Monday through Friday 8 AM to 5 PM.
