BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON THE JOB CORPS PROGRAM New Haven Job Corps Center, operated by Career Systems Development Corporation and located in New Haven Connecticut, is a federally funded educational and job training facility. There are a total of 200 students between the ages of 16 and 24, inclusive of 150 residential and 50 non-resident students, most of whom come from the local community and the northern and southern portions of Connecticut. Enrollees in the program are screened by the Center and Federal recruitment agencies. A common criterion for eligibility is the need and the desire to learn a skill to become more employable. Enrollees are generally considered healthy, but physical and emotional problems can be present which must be considered and addressed. Some of the 200 authorized students may at any given time be enrolled under the auspices of special disability programs, which accommodate students with a variety of physical impairments without age restrictions. The program meets the needs of each individual and focuses on four (4) specific areas that enable the trainee to become successfully employed. Those areas include building vocational skills, developing academic skills and increasing awareness of social skills and core values. Besides educational and vocational opportunities, students receive free housing and meals, medical and dental care, as well as living and clothing allowances. There are daily recreational activities and outings scheduled weekly for all students who wish to participate. Counseling Services to assist students with their individual needs. Also, when training is completed, Career Transition services are provided to assist with job placement and pursuing independent living.
