FY-1980
The Michigan Youth Program is a state funded project designed to provide on-the-job
training to out of school youth ages 16-24 who are from low income families. This
training in private industry will be complemented by employability skills training
in a structured,well supervised group setting. Trained staff will provide voca-
tional counseling and assist youth in identifying their occupational interests,
aptitudes, and skills. Youth will learn job seeking skills including application
procedures and interview techniques and job retention skills which focus on per-
formance factors such as skill acquisition, motivation, attendance, and responsive-
ness to supervision. The primary goal of the program is to assist youth in
achieving permanent unsubsidized employment.
The purpose of this resolution is to obtain the Public Services Committee's approval
and recommendation to the Board of Commissioners of the program design and appli-
cation to the Michigan Department of Labor for $200,000 in the Michigan Youth
Program.
