The Youthreach programme is a national programme of education and training for early school leavers. The programme is delivered in two settings, Youthreach Centres and Community Training Centres (CTCs).

The Youthreach programme provides two years integrated education, training and work experience for unemployed early school leavers without any qualifications or vocational training, who are between 16 and 21 years of age. The programme offers participants the opportunity to identify and pursue viable options within adult life, provides them with opportunities to acquire certification, and includes a work experience element to prepare participants for progression on to further study, training or working life. 

Information on the allocation  for each Youthreach centre for the years 2017 to 2020 is being collated by SOLAS and I will arrange for it to be sent directly to the Deputy.
