JFF Director Joshua Johnson was quoted in a recent Insight on Business article about the value of youth apprenticeship.

“I can’t think of any other workforce program that you can walk into with limited to no experience and walk out a skilled worker in that occupation,” he said in the article. “If you get those individuals to come out and become skilled workers, that’s how you attack the gap to getting people to the middle class. That’s how you eradicate poverty.”
