About this title

Synopsis

The experiences of three rural and remote communities challenge common beliefs about the lack of opportunity for rural youth to participate in meaningful and instructive school-to-work experiences in their own small rural communities. But to create such opportunities, schools, community members, and policy makers had to work together. The author describes how the programs succeeded, including planning phases and creating policy support for innovative approaches. Book includes advice and resource information for readers who would like to try similar approaches in their own communities.
