The culmination of a convening and series of interviews with practitioners, "Improving Education & Income Generation Outcomes for Undocumented Youth" offers of a host of state and local case studies and recommendations for expanding opportunity for undocumented young people. 

This year NYEC celebrates its 40th Anniversary! Join us during our 2019 Annual Forum (November 11-13th) as we bring together policymakers, practitioners, youth leaders and activists to advance the youth employment field. Information on registration, session proposals, and the hotel block can be found here! 

On July 23rd 2019, NYEC, the Youth Advocate Program, Inc., the Annie E. Casey Foundation, and the Camden County Workforce Investment Board held a second convening in Camden County, New Jersey, to chart a better path for young people from the county who have been sentenced to out-of-home placements. A release of findings and recommendations will be made available later in the year. 

NYEC is a partner in the Youth Technical Assistance Center (Y-TAC), which is run by the Institute of Educational Leadership through a grant from the Rehabilitation Service Administration. Throughout 2019, NYEC is updating the YSP/KSA training modules, which are being delivered in states around the country.

NYEC is convening several national partners to craft a set of principles and model policies for how to engage opportunity youth in the growing green economy. We are working to launch a coalition throughout the country that will build on existing dialogues around green jobs, environmental awareness, and workforce development.
