Larry Robbin (BIO) will talk about connecting out of school youth to employment programs is often like trying to catch the wind! Based on over 500 interviews with at-risk youth to address their resistance to traditional outreach approaches, this workshop brings innovative and non traditional recruitment strategies to the front. Hear how programs that could not meet their recruitment goals transform to programs that have waiting lists. Learn how adult led recruitments that lack a strong youth perspective are bound to fail and hear how to effectively apply private sector marketing sales savy to invite and hold youth to your programs. Not only will Larry highlight reasons that keep at - risk youth from engaging in youth employment programs, he will identify recruiting strategies to attract out of school youth and will help you identify one program element to keep youth active.
