Fulfilling the Potential of NYC-2. Linking the Neighborhood Youth Corps and MA-JOBS Program into a Sequential Training-Employment Model.
Lorber, Fred; Feifer, Irwin
Although Neighborhood Youth Corps (NYC) training is conducted either in NYC centers, governmental and non-profit agencies or private industry, there is no commitment for employment after training. The Mobilization for Youth-Experimental Manpower Laboratory (MFY-EML) is exploring the feasibility of linking NYC to other government manpower training programs. Investigations indicate that the NYC program could be a natural complement to the Department of Labor's Manpower Administration Job Opportunities in the Business Sector (MA-JOBS) program, since participating companies make commitments to hire hard-to-employ individuals, and to train them later. A job training employment model is proposed in which the NYC program could be used as an MA-JOBS apprenticeship training ground for a consortium of small employers. (Author)
