The Labor Department announced the availability of $99 million in funding through the YouthBuild Program to support the delivery of pre-apprenticeships in high-demand industries, including construction, infrastructure and clean energy. The YouthBuild Program grants provide occupational skills training, employment services and academic support to individuals aged 16-24 in communities where they face persistent barriers to career skills and academic development. Administered through DOL’s Employment and Training Administration, the YouthBuild Program will fund individual grants for approximately 75 projects, with each grant ranging from $700,000 to $1.5 million.
