Establishes a one-year pilot program offering up to 100 employment vouchers for young adult parents in the District of Columbia.
The Pathways to Prosperity for Young Parents Pilot Amendment Act of 2025 amends the Youth Employment Act of 1979 to define "young adult parent" as an individual aged 16 through 24 who is the custodial or non-custodial parent of a child under 18 years of age. The act establishes a one-year pilot program through the Department of Employment Services (DOES), providing up to 100 employment vouchers to subsidize wages for young adult parents. Each voucher covers up to 50 percent of the prevailing hourly wage for up to 40 hours per week for no longer than 12 months.
