2001 High School/High Tech Start-Up Grant
Awardees
A total of $600,000 has been awarded to 12 organizations to
develop demonstration High School/High Tech (HS/HT) program sites that would
align the HS/HT program with the Workforce Investment Act's (WIA's)
youth-related programs.
The grants, to organizations that provide youth services, will
provide start-up funds for new programs modeled on the national High
School/High Tech series of programs that provide young people with disabilities
an opportunity to explore their interest in technology-related careers. These
locally directed and supported programs serve either in-school or out-of-school
youth with disabilities in a year-long program of corporate site visits,
mentoring, job shadowing guest speakers, after school activities and paid
summer internships. Each grant is awarded for a one-year period, with one
option year, subject to the availability of funds.
