A Guide for Funding At-Risk Youth Programs with Carl Perkins and Job Training Partnership Act Funds. TEA Division of Program Planning: Dropout Prevention and Recovery.
Texas State Dept. of Community Affairs, Austin.; Texas Education Agency, Austin.
This guide is designed as a practical tool for those who wish to meet the requirements of House Bill 1010 and Texas State Board of Education rules that mandate district dropout programs for at-risk youth. This audience includes school district superintendents, at-risk coordinators, vocational education administrators, private industry council directors, and Education Advisory Subcommittee chairpersons. Section I introduces local contacts who can ease the process of planning and coordinating education and job training funds and programs. Section II offers field-tested ideas for planning a program to serve at-risk youth using Carl Perkins and Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) funds. Section III answers questions that potential service providers ask most often. Section IV provides a more detailed explanation of the funding, service delivery, and planning systems of the Carl Perkins Act and JTPA. Appendixes include a chart outlining the Perkins Act and JTPA, a chart of eligibility criteria, a discussion of other eligibility issues, and a service delivery area map and contact chart. (YLB)
