The Youth Council has provided oversight and made important recommendations regarding youth programming over the past year. Some of the Youth Council initiatives for 2007-2008:
- Expanding the Youth Work Experience Program to include private for-profit businesses as worksites.
- An hourly pay increase for the youth participating in the Work Experience Program was approved.
- Administering WIA Youth Programs, which met or exceeded all 7 of the state-mandated performance measures.
