Collaboration Purpose

The City of Los Angeles’ Economic and Workforce Development Department (EWDD) and Workforce Investment Board (WIB), and the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) are working together to improve outcomes for out-of-school/out-of-work youth. Based out of YouthSource Centers operated by the city, collaboration partners provide academic advising, employment training programs, and other services to youth who have dropped out of high school prior to graduation or have graduated but are not yet enrolled in postsecondary education or in the workforce.
