Slide5Implications
Key implications for the Council’s workPrograms and systems that serve youth are necessary but not sufficient
The Council can highlight and identify strategies that address the needs of youth
Communication is a key area in which the Council can add value by bringing visibility to this population
Creating systemic linkage between education/credentialing and workforce needs is a key component of youth employability
Multi-agency engagement can facilitate cross-sector collaboration at the local level
