Can I use WIA youth funds to provide a service to a youth who is not a WIA participant?
In general, no. WIA youth funds can only be used to provide services to WIA participants; however, WIA funds may be spent on outreach or recruitment activities. For example, you may hold an open house for youth to recruit new participants. Some youth who attend may not be eligible or may choose not to become WIA participants. This is allowable, but you cannot provide any service under the 10 program elements or framework activities to non-participants.
