Profiles


Each local Youth Council has a unique story to tell in its approach to implementing All Youth-One System. Reflected in their profiles are creative approaches to the distinctive needs of youth and the particular social, environmental, economic demographics of their communities.

Fifty Stories, All Youth-One System tells the story of California's fifty Workforce Investment Boards and Youth Councils. It provides a snapshot of the initiatives and activities underway in the summer of 2003. It reflects the complexity and diversity of the locally-based workforce development system in California: urban and rural; north, central, coastal, and south; youth who are growing into adulthood in all kinds of cultural, economic, and educational environments. It tells the story of people and institutions throughout the state who care about young people and their success, and who are taking action as a result of that commitment.
