Introduction:
In this community there are a growing percentage of high school students who are dropping out. There are many reasons for this alarming trend in our community some being economical and others are based on the socioeconomic status of the population in general. Due to the depressed economy, many local companies are moving to other areas in an attempt to maintain competitive economic incentives for employees. When this happens, property taxes which support funding for high school programs has diminished in the last few years, resulting in the loss of qualified teachers and no funds to hire new positions. This has in turned left high school students feeling lost and hopeless with no hope of having a better quality of life. This is where the proposal for the organization I will be directing comes in. The organization will focus on providing high school drop-outs with a chance to gain necessary skills needed to obtain employment and provide a vocational training program as well so as to equip these children with training that will give them a chance at potentially better paying job opportunities. The Agency will be able to provide 1000 potential students with this opportunity in the first year and 2000 potential students in year two and thereafter. The funding available for this program amounts to 1,600,000 dollars and so in this plan I will show the budget plan that I have come up with, lay out the mission and goals of the organization, provide a plan for human resources to recruit, hire and train the administration and training staff, monitor the progress of the organizations day to day workings and provide a competitive reward system as well as benefit program for all employees. Human Resources will also be responsible for all performance appraisals, changes in job-duties if necessary, and any discipline actions or
