JOB AND WORK READINESS GRANT (JWR) The Job and Work Readiness Grant is intended to address historic inequity and disparities in educational and work readiness resources and outcomes, through the provision of quality youth development programming, including access to high school completion, Essential Employability Skills training, support during post-secondary transitions into training, internships, Apprenticeships, Industry-Recognized Credentials, and/or Paid Work Experiences.
Through the Job and Work Readiness Grant Projects, YDD intends for youth participants to become increasingly capable of obtaining a job and having subsequent and more advanced training or education that prepares them for future opportunities to thrive in the workforce, so that they can be self-sufficient and ultimately self-actualized.
YDD’s programs focus on youth with demonstrated need, particularly youth who are disconnected from school, face complex individual barriers to post-secondary transitions, and/or are employed in jobs that do not have a clear path to living-wage opportunities. Applicants will be asked to demonstrate how proposed Projects actively and effectively serve Youth Furthest from Opportunity.

Proposed scope, duration, and scale of services may be determined by the Applicant; however, funding may not be used to support stand-alone events (i.e., career expos, job fairs, or special events) outside of ongoing training and programming. Youth who face challenges to high school completion may experience significant life challenges and/or other barriers to employment and self-sufficiency.
