Interested in learning about services or resources available to formerly incarcerated youth and the practitioners who serve them? We know that many of the individuals who have a criminal record face various restrictions that can affect their ability to obtain employment, housing, public benefits, and access to other rights and benefits. It is critical that the workforce system has the knowledge and resources that will help youth they serve succeed.
The Clean Slate Clearinghouse (CSC), a project funded by the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration and the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance and developed by The Council of State Governments Justice Center also recorded and hosted a webinar,Collateral Consequences of a Juvenile Adjudication: How Juvenile Records Can Affect Youth Even After the Case Is Over.
The Division of Youth Services’ technical assistance (TA) series, Our Journey Together, provides support to workforce system professionals across the nation operating WIOA youth programs.
