The Connecticut Conference of Municipalities’ 119K Commission held its first meeting Tuesday at New Haven’s Hillhouse High School to continue the conversation on disconnected youth.
CBIA and Dalio Education are working together to amplify efforts highlighting Connecticut’s young adults who are at-risk or disconnected from education and employment, and advance solutions to a statewide issue that has enormous human and economic cost.
In 2023, Dalio Education released a report that sent shockwaves through the state. There is a crisis in Connecticut, and one that we are not adequately seeing or naming, despite its pervasiveness. It is “Connecticut’s Unspoken Crisis,” and there are 119,000 Connecticut children and young adults who are at-risk of social isolation, academic failure, low educational and career aspirations, homelessness, unemployment and are disconnected from their peers, schools and communities.
Joe DeLong of CCM CT and Josh Brown of Domus were guests on Sunday's episode of the the Real Story on FOX61 discussing the newly formed 199K Commission.
