https:/crsreports.congress.gov October 19, 2021Youth Employment and Training Programs Authorized by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity ActThe Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA, P.L. 113-128) is the primary federal statute centrally focused on workforce development. It authorizes a group of programs to assist workers and employers in the labor market, with an emphasis on individuals with barriers to employment. This In Focus describes the three programs authorized in WIOA that target youth and are administered by the Department of Labor (DOL). Most of the youth-targeted programs in WIOA define eligible youth as persons ages 16 to 24 who demonstrate specified barriers to employment. Some individuals served by these programs could be eligible for both the youth programs in WIOA as well as other WIOA programs that serve the general adult population (ages 18+). Table 1.
