PLC - progressing life in the community

🚗 **Opportunity Alert!**

This Annual Program Statement (APS) announces the agency’s intention to award funding to entities that will equip justice-involved youth with the skills, training, and opportunities needed to succeed in the workforce and generate sustainable income. Washington, DC’s Department of Youth Rehabilitative Services (DYRS) will fund age-appropriate programming for two groups: youth ages 14–16 and youth ages 17–21. For youth ages 14–16, programs should focus on building foundational soft skills, work readiness, and career exploration to spark early interest in future pathways. For youth ages 17–21, programs should provide vocational training, apprenticeships, and on-the-job learning experiences as well as leadership development programming that support a clear “learning-to-earning” transition into employment.
