As the Congress considers reauthorization of CETA, the VEA, and the TJTC, it must appraise the ongoing characteristics of youth employment problems and decide what policies will be most appropriate to deal with them. In its efforts to create a set of policies that might improve labor market prospects for youths, this paper is intended to aid the Congress. Chapter II examines the dimensions of youth employment in more detail and presents projections for the 1980s. Alternative policy approaches are described in Chapter III. Chapters IV through VI examine current programs that attempt to implement these approaches, as well as a number of specific options that might be adopted in the future.
