City of Jacksonville Framework
This framework outlines a strategy for youth empowerment in Jacksonville, aiming to align education, youth development, and workforce readiness to ensure a clear path from high school to meaningful employment. Key strategic focus areas include Education & Life Skills, Mentorship & Social Capital, Experiential Learning, and Safe Spaces. The plan's intended outcomes are to strengthen the local workforce, reduce long-term public costs by re-engaging disconnected youth, and retain local talent by leveraging investments in key growth industries.
