Opportunities for Success for Out-of-School Youth (OSY) is a Consortium Incentive
Grant funded by the Office of Migrant Education (OME) at the United States Department of Education (USDE) to build capacity in states with a growing secondary-aged migrant
out-of-school youth population.

OSY works with consortium states to:

  • Identify and recruit all out-of-school youth within the state, including recovery and here-to-work youth,
  • Design a well formulated process for accessing the different needs of the two groups,
  • Develop appropriate service delivery models for those youth who want to continue their education and for those who are here-to-work,
  • Share information and resources,
  • Identify and develop curriculum and instructional materials, and
  • Provide professional development to support OSY activities.
