The Neighborhood Youth Corps began the 1968 summer program on June 3, employing 2,450 youths from low income families in forty Arkansas counties. The Out of-School program targets high school drop-outs, with 24 counties hosting Works Training-In-Industry projects averaging 150 workers. About 250 workers are used by the Arkansas Highway Department. NYC administrator John T. Jean notes the 1965 twelve-week program employed over 16,000 youth in 73 of 76 counties, with more than $5 million in wages, and cites a 4.5 percent administrative cost of the federal share over three years. The program operates where NYC isn’t provided by local agencies, administered through the Department of Labor with County Judge Finis Odom.
