Youth Program Excellence Awards
We want to assure everyone who has nominated a youth program or submitted an application for the Youth Program Excellence Award that we are continuing with the award process.
The Youth Program Excellence Award is very important to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. They remain committed to enhancing the quality of Ohio’s WIA system and to recognizing excellent programs.
Thank you for the time and effort you put into completing the application, but even more for all that you do for the youth in your community. Your work makes a difference every day in the lives of the young people you serve.
The Youth Program Excellence Award honors Ohio youth programs that demonstrate excellence in program design, implementation, and results. Programs are nominated by local youth council chairpersons and must receive Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds, be located in Ohio, and provide at least one WIA youth program element.
