| Abstract | The Targeted Jobs Demonstration Program (TJDP) was a two-year, six-agency demonstration project under which 14 communities received federal funds to encourage local coordination of federal programs to link federally assisted economic development programs with employment and training programs for individuals from minority groups and for economically disadvantaged persons. To evaluate the effectiveness of the TJDP, researchers conducted three rounds of field research and prepared case studies on each of the 14 project sites. These analyses revealed the TJDP to be a partial success. While several communities either made no attempt or were unsuccessful in carrying out the demonstration's objectives, significant accomplishments were achieved in a few communities. This special record is not, however, surprising when the economic recession and reductions in federally funded economic development and employment and training programs are taken into consideration. Indeed, the experience of the TJDP site in Portland, Oregon strongly suggests that job targeting strategies can be an effective tool for helping disadvantaged persons obtain unsubsidized employment from private firms assisted by economic development investments.
