Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Background checks for youth program supervisors

The Department of Employment Services can get criminal background checks from the FBI and the Metropolitan Police Department. Checks are required for people who directly supervise District youth ages 9 to 16 at summer jobs and Career Ready Early Scholars host sites. This applies when the supervisor is not a District government employee. The change helps protect youth in these programs.

Food money only for participant events

The law limits youth program food spending by DOES. Money can only buy food and drinks for events that program participants attend. This covers the summer jobs and Career Ready Early Scholars programs during 2025 operations.
