With the job market still weak
and higher education growing more expensive, young people in Massachusetts today
face some significant challenges. The Youth Empowerment programs that we fund
through our state budget help young people find jobs, break from cycles of
violence, and build careers.
-
Whereas the Governor's budget
would increase support for these programs that help young people build a strong
future for themselves, the House Ways & Means proposal includes significant
funding cuts.
-
The level of support
envisioned by the House Ways & Means plan is 50% below the current funding
level.
The Massachusetts Budget and Policy Center
(MassBudget) produces policy research, analysis, and data-driven recommendations
focused on improving the lives of low- and middle-income children and adults,
strengthening our state's economy, and enhancing the quality of life in
Massachusetts. |
