Youth Programs
Work Training youth programs prioritize young adults ages 16-24 for education and employment services who are involved with the juvenile or adult criminal justice systems. We have a staff position located at YouthSource at WorkSource Renton that is the single point of contact for both juvenile and adult referrals. This position is jointly funded by Superior Court Community Youth Programs and CCAP. Depending on their needs, interests and age, they are served by either one of our youth or adult programs. We receive state and federal grants to provide services and those vary depending on the funders requirements. Our major youth focus is young adults who have dropped out of high school and who need a GED and further education and training to begin a career. We encourage post-secondary training and credentials in fields that will increase their earning power to a self-sufficiency level. Adult Programs
