The Workforce Investment Act Title I Youth provides employment and training services to economically disadvantaged youth possessing specific barriers to employment. New Hampshire’s priorities for this funding are for dropout prevention and/or recovery models.  Program focus is on comprehensive youth services consisting of ten program elements which can be grouped around four major themes:

• Improving educational achievement (including such elements as tutoring, study skills training, and instruction leading to secondary school completion; dropout out prevention strategies, and alternative secondary school offerings) ,
• Preparing for and succeeding in employment (including summer employment opportunities, paid and unpaid work experience, and occupational skills training),
• Supporting youth (including meeting supportive services needs and providing adult mentoring, follow-up services, and comprehensive guidance and counseling) and
• Offering services intended to develop the potential of youth as citizens and leaders (including leadership development opportunities).
