Biographical / historical:

Funded in March 1980 by the Dept. of Labor Office of Youth Programs, the project was designed to increase Hispanic youth participation in federally funded employment and training programs and to increase the capability of Hispanic community-based organizations to provide high-quality education and training services to Hispanic youth. The project provided technical assistance and training to Hispanic community-based organizations involved in Hispanic youth employment and training programs in ten prime sponsor CETA areas. In addition, local youth councils were formed to provide information sharing and advocacy. Project staff were located in Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Dallas, Phoenix, and Chicago.
