The YouthROC project is a hurricane-recovery effort designed to enhance the job and life skills of 1100 youth in the Greater New Orleans area.We are very happy to say that we have exceeded our projected number of 1100 and will be continuing with our efforts for another year. Since January of 2008, we have been providing young people from all over the New Orleans area with construction and green-jobs training, helping them improve their education, providing needed counseling, and assisting them with long-term employment efforts after they graduate from our program.We are now in the process of revamping and streamilining our efforts so we can begin a new nine-month cycle in August. Special thanks to the United States Department of Labor, the Louisiana Workforce Commission, the City of New Orleans, Goodwill Industries of Southeastern Louisiana, and the Region 1 Workforce Partnership.
