Youth Council

Both the Workforce Investment Board and the Youth Council are staffed by the Office of Economic and Workforce Development, which is charged with coordinating and centralizing the youth and adult workforce systems in San Francisco.

Following a year-long strategic planning process involving dozens of community stakeholders, the Youth Council adopted the following vision to guide its work:

Our vision is that San Francisco offers a comprehensive and coordinated system of care, which provides a continuum of quality services to ensure that all youth are equipped with the skills, knowledge and abilities to prepare them for successful employment, academic and life choices by age 25.

The Youth Council and the Office of Economic and Workforce Development will use this vision in conjunction with a series of primary and supportive strategies to guide its work for 2009.
