Building Youth Workforce Skills Act

This bill amends the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act to expand access to vocational training funds for youth. It allows local workforce funds to pay for training through individual accounts for in-school youth aged 16-21 and out-of-school youth, using the same process currently used for adults and dislocated workers. The key change is extending existing individual training account mechanisms to cover these youth groups without creating new programs. This directly affects young people seeking job skills by making federal training funds more accessible to them.
