The need is greater than ever to develop and expand programs for youth who are out of school and out of work. In the past 5 years, we have made real progress to develop strong opportunities to re-enroll, educate, and graduate youth to earn a high school diploma.

ASN seeks to influence public policy and funding streams to impact education and labor force training at the local level, particularly programs that meet the needs of low-skilled adults and youth in literacy, numerical reasoning and calculation, and critical thinking skills.
