Out of School & Justice Involved at Little Village

The out-of-school youth for the WIOA program is for those who are between the ages of 16-24 and they are looking for full time employment or looking to go to trade school and then obtain full time employment. Must be out of school (whether it’s high school/college/trade/etc.), be low income (live in a high poverty area, receive SNAP benefits, working but fall in the low income status or have not worked in the past 6 months), and have a high school diploma or GED. If they don’t have a high school diploma or GED then the first step would be to obtain the GED (which the program will pay for) and then move forward with employment or training.
