handle is hein.gao/gaobackgd0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GAOUnited States General Accounting Office Washington, D.C. 20548 Human Resources Division B-223699 February 19, 1993 The Honorable Ralph M. Hall House of Representatives The Honorable Richard K. Armey House of Representatives The enclosed materials were prepared at your request to provide information on the costs, outcomes, and administrative structure of the Job Corps program. In particular, you asked us to update information contained in an earlier report on Job Corps costs and outcomes in 1984 (Job Corps: Its Costs, Employment Outcomes, and Service to the Public, GAO/HRD-86-112BR, July 30, 1986). The materials presented are based on information obtained from the Department of Labor's Office of Job Corps and discussions with Labor officials relating to: -- the structure of the Job Corps program, -- cost differences between centers run by contractors and Civilian Conservation Centers, -- outcomes for students trained by national sole-source contractors, and -- sole-source contractors' hiring of students. The Job Corps administrative structure has not changed substantially since our 1986 report. At present, 108 centers operate in 43 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The centers generally provide basic education, vocational training and other services, such as health care, social skills training, and placement services, to economically disadvantaged youth in a residential setting, although two centers are nonresidential. The average stay is about 7.6 months. GAO/HRD-93-16R, Job Corps Costs and Outcomes
