Iowa to pilot work projects for mentally retarded youths
DES MOINES IDPA Mentally retarded youths may gain work experience in county conservation parks under a pilot plan. The Iowa Association for Retarded Children seeks about 40000 from Neighborhood Youth Corps to fund an eight week summer program for 75 youths aged 16 to 21 across Des Moines Delaware Crawford Washington and Polk counties. The project would pay 1.25 per hour and aims to expand into a 12 month program with career motivation in high schools and colleges. The plan is awaiting Neighborhood Youth Corps action and federal funding for college bound youths to mentor the participants. Christensen calls the approach creative and possibly the first of its kind.
