Creating Paths to Employment for Opportunity Youth Toolkit
This toolkit by the 100,000 Opportunities Initiative is designed to develop strong employment pathways and work opportunities for out-of-school and out-of-work youth between 16 and 24 years old. The toolkit supports community-based organizations and other intermediaries to understand regional workforce needs, including labor market data and employer demands, and the knowledge that is required to guide youth towards employment.
The youth toolkit is composed of six modules: Understanding Workforce Needs, Understanding the Talent Pipeline, Developing a Community Strategy, Holding Hiring Fairs (module under development), Building out Paths to Employment, and Shifting Company Policies.
