Youth Employment and Leadership Ladders (YELL)
In 2011, Green For All will extend the focus of the Green Pathways Out of Poverty Community of Practice to include issues facing low-income and disconnected youth.
As the country's green economy grows, there are also growing opportunities for the next generation. The 2011 Youth Employment and Leadership Ladders (YELL) working group will identify opportunities for career pathways and pathways out of poverty for low-income or disconnected youth. We will develop and share resources that create and sustain effective youth workforce training programs; research and provide best practices and strategies for removing barriers to training and employment for youth; and share other resources towards helping prepare youth for, and connect youth to, green collar jobs.
