WEBINAR
Library Programs that Help Build Economic Mobility for Youth
This webinar originally took place on June 18, 2025.
Libraries across the country are developing innovative programs to support opportunity youth, or young people ages 16-24 who are not in school or employed. In this webinar, member libraries from ULC’s Creating Youth Opportunities cohort will share their experiences designing and implementing library services that meet the needs of this often overlooked population.
Through real-world examples, speakers highlight successful strategies, key challenges, and lessons learned in building meaningful partnerships and sustainable programs in libraries. Attendees will gain practical insights into how libraries can play a vital role in expanding educational and economic opportunities for opportunity youth. The session will conclude with an interactive discussion and Q&A.
