►Indicates Committee Action Indicated Action needed

Pledge of Allegiance Tom Aderhold led the Pledge of Allegiance. Welcome from the Committee Chair This is the inaugural youth development committee meeting. This committee will formalize CareerSource Tampa Bay’s outreach to youth, to get them engaged in meaningful activity that leads them to self-support and a career path. The goal is to drive the development of a talent pipeline for youth. There will be a significant impact to our organization, our local workforce, our local communities, and more importantly, the quality of life of our youth. The committee members were encouraged to reach out to potential and current partners to explore their youth-oriented programs, needs, and successes. Public Comments There were none.


Guest Speaker Sean McCoy, Sr., Business Development Director for Public Consulting Group (PCG), presented their TechQuest program. This is an apprenticeship program under development through a grant from the Department of Labor. PCG has a MOU with CareerSource Tampa Bay, and will focus on five areas related to information technology and other related occupations. They are focusing on industry-led apprenticeships, with a goal of including youth as candidates.

Overview WIOA Youth Program - Overview presented by Fadhail Ibraheem. The complete presentation can be found on pages 2-7, of the August 19, 2020 Youth Development Committee Agenda Packet. Next meeting we want to go into more specifics about how we're partnering with each of our partners to examine exactly what those partner organizations have been doing, and so we can better understand the pipeline that has been set up, the flow, the relationships and so on.

Summer Job Connection (SJC) Program - Overview presented by Jennifer Wilson. The complete presentation can be found on pages 8-26, of the August 19, 2020 Youth Development Committee Agenda Packet.

It was recommended to obtain the assessment process used by Hillsborough Community College (HCC) Career Exploration Program to compare with the assessment process of CareerSource Tampa Bay’s SJC Program.

Action/Discussion Items ► Action Item #1 – Draft PY 20-21 Youth Development Strategic Goals (Refer to page 27 of the August 19, 2020 Youth Development Committee Agenda Packet) A point was raised about the disconnect between the common belief that youth are digitally savvy because they are so adept at using their cellular and pad devices, and the real world observation of businesses that the youth are actually not as skilled in using digital technology as their needs require. Are these shortcomings being addressed in our goals for the youth services we are providing? These businesses are also looking for youth to bring entrepreneurial thinking to the workplace. These skills are embedded into the curriculum of our employability skills workshops. This training was embedded into the Summer Job Connection Program and it will be included in the WIOA year-round program. Additionally, Microsoft will be offering classes at no charge. They're going to be offering employability skills workshop at no cost to us as part of their community initiative on a variety of different topics. We purchased “Go Guides” last year and we did include that, as part of the Summer Job Connection program and it is a part of the year-round WIOA youth program. That is now one of the key elements that we’re required to offer under WIOA Youth. On the digital side, we do offer Microsoft Office Certification, but that's at a cost per individual. We were approached by Microsoft’s Community Development Manager and one of the things we’re in the works on is they're going to be offering an employability skills workshop at no cost to us as part of their community initiative on a variety of different topics. They have a program


called “Jumpstart” that covers some basic employability skills, and it also introduces basic computer literacy. That's going to be something that we bring to the table to offer to all of our job seekers accessing services in our region. We can easily embed that into the curriculum. We’ll also be looking at Career Edge, our virtual services platform to ensure that there are some modules in there. There are also traditional employability skills workshops, the staff facilitated a basic computer introduction to Computer Workshop. We also use a platform called “Workplace Skills for 21st Century, that has basic instruction on Microsoft services. I think that Microsoft is going to be bringing a different draw and offer some basic certification there.

Information Item # 2 WIOA Youth Policies

The CSTB Board has a formal policy “CSTB Policy and Procedure Development – Policy #

019-C0038 that was effective on 11.21.2019. This policy outlines CSTB policy framework, format, matrix and numbering system, implementation timeline, post implementation analysis, ongoing training, periodic reviews and modifications.

Policies are created for the following areas:

• All CSF and DEO policies requiring board policy • Recommendations by CEO, COO, CFO and senior leadership staff • Key programmatic areas within organization

All policies drafted by the CPPO are sent to the CSTB executive, senior leadership team and

CSTB Board counsel for review and input. Input is solicited and received prior to a policy being submitted to the appropriate CSTB Committee, Executive Committee or Board of Directors for review, consideration and recommendation for approval. Policies require Board level approval, prior to implementation by CSTB staff. Policies are finalized internally and prepared for CSTB Committee/Board where CPPO presents for approval.

Once approved by the Board of Directors, the policy is updated with official implementation

date, formatted in a PDF version and sent out to the CSTB senior leadership team. The policy is then placed on the U Drive at U:\Career Services\2019 Policies and Procedures and then placed on the Intranet (http://local.careersourcetampabay.com/) – located under the “CSTB Policy and Procedure” header and also placed on the CSTB website (https://www.careersourcetampabay.com/reports-and-publications/) - located under the “Reports and Publications” section under “About Us.”

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014 enacted a comprehensive

youth employment program for serving eligible youth, ages 14-24, who face barriers to education, training, and employment.

Funds for youth services are allocated to states and local areas based on a formula. The

WIOA Youth Program focuses primarily on out-of-school youth, requiring local areas to expend a minimum of 75% of WIOA youth funds on them. The program includes 14 program elements that are required to be made available to youth participants. WIOA prioritizes work experience through a 20% minimum expenditure rate for the work experience program element.


Outlined below are the existing CSTB Board approved policies that specifically apply with to the WIOA Youth Program:

• WIOA Title 1 Program Eligibility Criteria Policy #019-C0035 • WIOA Youth 5% Exception and 5% Limitation Policy #019-C0050 • Youth Requiring Additional Services Policy #019-C0031 • Supportive Service and Incentive Policy #018-C0012 • On-the-Job Training (OJT) Policy #018-C0011 • CSTB Paid Work Experience (PWE) Policy #019-C0016 • Apprenticeship Policy #019-C0041

Information Item # 4 Youth Unemployment Rate

According to the 2019 US Census Bureau, an estimated 185,008 young adults between the

ages of 16-24 reside in Hillsborough County, comprising nearly 13% of the total estimated population in 2019. Youth and young adults face unique barriers to employment and the need for relevant career exploration opportunities. Youth unemployment rates are nearly double the overall unemployment rate and the employment rates of ages 16-19 (24%) and 20-24 (63%) in Tampa Bay are reflective of the national downward trend of fewer young adults in the labor force, as reported by the Brookings Institution. Furthermore, nearly 45,000 are disconnected youth ages 16-24 who are not in school or the workforce and have attained less than an associate degree, positioning them for an increased risk of subsequent poverty and unemployment. Without a supportive environment, the most vulnerable youth and young adults – such as those from low-income families, current and former foster care youth, pregnant and parenting, and other at-risk populations – often encounter significant challenges in developing the necessary skills to enter the workforce.

The trend of declining workforce participation rate of youth and young adults ages 16-24

nationwide over the past couple decades is projected to continue, with USDOL 2022 estimates at 50%, largely attributed to increasing school attendance. Without intervention, these compounded barriers for disadvantaged young adults lacking the financial means and/or skill levels to pursue training, and without connection to education and or the workforce, are set up for lifelong barriers to employment and self-sufficiency.

WIOA shifts the primary program focus of Title 1 formula programs to support the educational

and career success of out-of-school youth. It creates opportunities for youth that move beyond traditional employment and training services and infuses such principles as preparation for postsecondary opportunities, establishing a strong future pipeline, linkages between academic and occupational learning, connections to the local job market, and needed follow- up services for youth served under the Act.
