RFP-DCWIB-01-19 - Provide Summer Youth Employment Programs

Dutchess County Workforce Investment Board (DCWIB) is soliciting competitive proposals for summer employment for TANF eligible youth residents of Dutchess County. Proposals will be funded to employ youth in positions that will give them the opportunity to be challenged and productive, enhance their self- esteem, and develop transferable skills applicable to entry level jobs participants may apply for in the future. The 2019 program will incorporate a financial literacy component for all participants. The SYEP timeline allows providers time to review the universal applications, develop job placements, conduct youth orientations and schedule the financial literacy workshops that would improve the quality of experience for participants.
