This paper presents findings from an experimental evaluation of Job Corps, the
nation’s largest training program for disadvantaged youths. The study uses survey
data collected over four years and tax data over nine years on a nationwide
sample of 15,400 treatments and controls. The Job Corps model has promise;
program participation increases educational attainment, reduces criminal
activity, and increases earnings for several postprogram years. Based on tax
data, however, the earnings gains were not sustained except for the oldest participants.
Nonetheless, Job Corps is the only federal training program that has
been shown to increase earnings for this population. (JEL I28, I38, J13, J24)
