Contract Control Number: OEDEV-201842418-00
Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Denver Public Schools
Type and Scope of services to be performed:
This contract engages Denver Public Schools (DPS) as the city’s youth provider of the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) for the 2019 summer season. The program’s goal for service is 325 youth.
Since June 2016, when Denver began its new contracted delivery system for adult and youth workforce programs, DPS has demonstrated success related to youth enrollments and service. Based on DPS’ leverage of both its CareerConnect program and Center for Family Opportunities model, as well as strong community partners, the out-of-school youth program was added to their annual contract beginning in July 2017. The Summer Youth Employment Program was also added to DPS’ contract beginning for Summer 2018, and will be continued for 2019 with this contract.
DPS has continued to demonstrate success on these programs through innovative processes and their two-generation approach. DPS’s access to youth who would benefit from and who are eligible for services is unmatched, allowing for a steady pipeline of youth for both WIOA and SYEP programs.
Success will be measured, in part, through data on the following:
• Number of youth who apply to the program
• Number of youth enrolled
• Number of youth receiving job readiness training
• Number of youth placed into internships or training
• Number of successful completions
• Number participants who have entered or retained employment
The SYEP program is a significant subset of the larger whole of our summer youth programming. Through increased funding and strategic investments, Denver has been able to increase the number of youth receiving internships and/or job readiness training year over year--with 627 enrollments across all programs in the summer of 2017, and 726 enrollments across all programs in summer 2018. In addition to 2019 SYEP, Denver will continue to seek out partners that will allow for the most efficient and effective services for our youth.
