Youth Committee

Purpose Statement

The Youth Committee of The Baltimore Workforce Development Board (BWDB) believes that a coordinated workforce system improves workforce outcomes for all young people.

We also believe by operating in high-action and high-alignment, the workforce ecosystem can achieve data-driven equitable outcomes. 

What We Do

We are deeply committed to empowering and partnering with emerging leaders in Baltimore City. We co-design strategies for in-school and out-of-school young adults ages 16-24.

How We Do It

With a community-centered approach, we mobilize the assets of young people to elevate a shared vision and identify and advance strategies that increase employment for young people.
