| Abstract | This guide to youth unemployment problems is based on the belief that a comprehensive system of program initiatives offers the best solutions. The principal focus is on vocationally at-risk youth. The first chapter defines and describes the target group, and outlines needs and appropriate responses. The second section describes the following eight basic service strategies: (1) Basic Skills Enhancement; (2) Alternative Schooling; (3) Work/Study; (4) Job-Readiness Training (JRT); (5) On-the-Job Training; (6) Occupational Training; (7) Residential Training; and (8) Youth Service Corps. Each of the strategies is illustrated by one or two programs, and research reports and current program contacts are listed for obtaining more detailed information. The third section discusses how to develop a system to coordinate service delivery, including organizing partners, establishing structure, and defining tasks and responsibilities. The appendices include key legislation relating to youth employability development; a list of resources for youth employment programs; a guide to identifying who is at risk; and the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) performance standards.
