Number of Young Adults Not in School and Not Working Hits 50 Year High
Nearly 6.5 million U.S.
teens and young adults are neither in school nor working, according to a new report
from the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
The most recent "Kids Count" report, one of the most widely cited surveys of how youth fare in the United States, found that young people aged 16 to 24 are facing serious barriers to successful careers as youth unemployment has reached its highest level since World War II. Only about half of young people in that age group held jobs in 2011, according to the study, HoffPo reports.
