Building Roads to Success: Key Considerations for Communities and States Reconnecting Youth to Education
National Youth Employment Coalition
This publication includes a series of briefs designed to assist community and state leaders, youth advocates, educators, and other stakeholders interested in improving and expanding education options for struggling students and out-of-school youth. It is relevant to the work of municipal government, community-based organizations, school districts, postsecondary institutions, workforce development organizations, apprenticeship programs, and other youth-serving organizations. Specific topics covered include: State and Local Policy, Cross-System Collaboration, Data Collection and Use, Building Capacity, and Funding. Building Roads to Success provides background on each area to help local- and state-level stakeholders think about where to start, how to assess how their community or state is doing, and how to improve or expand upon work already under way. Examples of promising and successful programs, policies, initiatives, and citations for key resources are provided throughout and are complemented by more in-depth resources available that can be found on the NYEC website.
