Title

Resolution directing the Department of Employee Relations and the City Clerk’s Office to cooperate with all City departments to increase utilization and effectiveness of the Direct Connect MKE platform.

Analysis

This resolution directs the Department of Employee Relations and the City Clerk’s Office to cooperate with all City departments to increase utilization and effectiveness of the Direct Connect MKE platform.

Body

Whereas, The Direct Connect MKE platform was created to connect unemployed and underemployed young adults and Millennials in Milwaukee’s emerging neighborhoods with vital information on job training, job support, and job placement opportunities; and

 

Whereas, Milwaukee’s youth unemployment rate remains high, and youth employment has been identified as a way to address the increase in crime during summer months; and

 

Whereas, The Direct Connect MKE platform has been underutilized by City departments in connecting Milwaukee youth with meaningful employment opportunities; and

 

Whereas, The Direct Connect MKE platform can be used by people of all ages; and

 

Whereas, The 2019 adopted City Budget contains a footnote directing the Department of Employee Relations and the City Clerk’s Office to cooperate with all city departments to increase utilization and effectiveness of the Direct Connect MKE platform; now, therefore be it

 

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee that the Department of Employee Relations and the City Clerk’s Office shall cooperate with all City departments to increase the utilization and effectiveness of the Direct Connect MKE platform.
