The New Great Depression - Young People and Employment


Today in the Capital, the CT Commission on Children held a forum on the current youth employment crisis that we're facing both nationally and state-wide. Unfortunately, I made it up there late and by the time I got there the room was packed beyond capacity (which in some ways is a good problem to have since this needs to be an all hands on deck initiative) so I did not stay for very long. Fortunately, CT-N was taping the event and it's already available on-line (see above). Additionally, the Commission on Children made the following documents available here: http://www.cga.ct.gov/coc/youth_employment.htm.

I'll try to debrief pieces of this on here sometime in the near future but wanted to get this information out to you all as soon as possible.
