Former Treasure Island Job Corps Center  Facilities Maintenance  student; now renowned rapper with recording contract with Columbia records Kreayshawn (Natassia Zolot )  was featured in the SF Chronicle of 12/22/2011. She was featured in SF Chronicle giving credit to Treasure Island Job Corps as having turned her life around! She is quoted as saying ““I really think it’s a good place to go,” Kreayshawn says of the free education/training program that helps low-income youth earn a diploma or GED, then learn career-defining work skills. “Right before I went— I just didn’t really see myself doing much of anything. Then I heard of Job Corps, I went, and it helped me get my life on track. And if you graduate, they even help you get an apartment.” Zolot lived in Job Corps’ dorms on Treasure Island, regularly rode the 108 bus and studied facility maintenance.” http://www.sfexaminer.com/entertainment/2011/12/oakland-rapper-kreayshawn-back-track#ixzz1hETyjuQM
