The
Emerging Workforce Report Data Compendium has compiled an
inventory of youth services providers as well as extensive
information about factors facing our workforce of the future.
Youth Services Inventory Report
An inventory of youth service providers is constructed to
provide a comprehensive overview of workforce development
related services available to youth throughout the CRWIB
service area. The inventory provides the CRWIB Youth Council
with data than can help to better understand what services
are available and where there are significant gaps. The
inventory should also serve as a tool for staff to identify
potential service referral options.
