In response to this problem, two of New York Cityfc congressmen, Charles Rangel and Jerrold Nadler, have introduced bills in the U.S. House of Representatives. Congressman Rangel has introduced RR 7066, legislation to create a federal tax credit for employors to hire disconnected youth. The bill is the direct result of CSSIs work with Congressman Rangel.

Next week, 50 New Yorkers who once faced a bleak future will be moving on to a pre-apprenticeship program that prepares them for well-paying jobs in the city's booming construction industry. They are the first graduating class of the construction skills program at STRIVE, a local nonprofit that specializes in helping people lacking job skills to enter the labor market. The STRIVE program - six-months of intensive training in basic workplace skills - is the beginning of a pipeline leading to employment for New Yorkers who might otherwise have given up any possibility of a productive life.
