Service Provider Applications for the Work Progress Program Now Open
The NYC Human Resources Administration, in partnership with NYC Opportunity, is seeking qualified youth service providers to deliver the Work Progress Program (WPP) in fiscal year 2020 (July 1, 2019 — June 30, 2020). WPP is a subsidized work experience initiative designed to complement existing youth services programs by providing participating low-income young adults with paid work experiences.
Through WPP, HRA reimburses providers for wages or stipends paid to low-income young adults (aged 16–24) who have been placed in short-term work experiences that typically last 12 weeks, with a special emphasis on serving out of school and out of work youth or at-risk youth. In fiscal year 2018, the program served more than 1,900 participants through over 45 service providers.
