E93: Beyond the Open Door: Rethinking Youth Workforce Development

from KRA's The Hub

In this episode of KRA's The Hub, host Jonathan Overall speaks with Robert M. Sainz, President and Executive Director of New Ways to Work, about creating stronger pathways to education and employment for young people. Drawing on more than 30 years of public service and youth workforce leadership, Robert explores the challenges facing opportunity youth, the growing interest in entrepreneurship, and the urgent need to protect investments in youth employment and reengagement programs. He also shares three essential ingredients for greater impact—reliable community data, caring and capable staff, and intentional collaboration—and challenges workforce leaders to engage young people in program design, advocate more visibly for their work, and celebrate the lives changed along the way.
