BACKGROUND:
The current Workforce Investment Act requires that a minimum of 30% of the allocation be designated for out-
of-school youth services. Both, in-school and out-of-school services are predicated on providing ten required
academic and occupational service elements. Further, the Act mandates that follow-up services be provided to
all youth who exit or complete services for a minimum of 12 months. The Employment and Human Services
Department(EHSD) on behalf of the Workforce Development Board(WDB)will develop contracts with that
focus on in-school youth, out-of-school youth and follow-up services through the issuance of RFP#1083 to
solicit services in each category, as well as geographically, for Fiscal Year 2005-2006.
On April 5, 2005,the Workforce Development Board's Youth Council authorized issuing a RFP for Youth
Services in order to initiate program changes.
