- Summary:
-
The testimony presented in this document focuses on the severe unemployment crisis among disadvantaged youth. Despite several nationwide youth employment programs the problem is increasing. As these young people continue to go without jobs they lose self-esteem and become victims of the street. A broad spectrum of witnesses testified before this Senate Subcommittee on Labor. Their testimony included the following points: (1) programs must help these youth in ways which are dignified and respectful; (2) education and training are needed but the government also must develop new jobs; (3) successful programs such as the Job Corps must be replicated; (4) the reductions in federal job funding must end; (5) government must work along with the private sector on this problem; and (6) encouraging youth to stay in school may be the best way to prevent increases in the youth unemployment rate.
