Washington state's reforms -which include the Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training initiative, or l-BEST, Opportunity Grants, and the Student Achievement Initiative- began to address three principal reasons why low-income, two-year college students often fail to complete credentials: underpreporotion, specifically inadequate reading, writing, math, or English-language skills; cosí, especially the cost of supporting themselves and their families while in school; and, fear, a lack of confidence compounded by the inability of cashstrapped community colleges to offer in-depth, ongoing college and career counseling to most students. While no independent evaluation is yet available, state data shows that Opportunity Grant recipients have higher retention or completion rates (81 per...

The federal government should be expanding the workforce development system that focuses on out-ofschool youth - current Workforce Investment Act (WIA) programming does not target this population. As a result too many funds end up in inschool youth programs. The Youth Opportunity grant program should be restored. The original WIA included a program that targeted funding to communities with high rates of 16-24 yearolds who were out of school, out of work, and with low skills. Despite strong successes in high poverty areas with high concentrations of people of color, such as Baltimore, the Bush administration quickly defunded the Youth Opportunity program. The state, in the midst of a record budget crunch, is not helping. The state Education Department has proposed a budget that would eli...
