# U.S. Department of Labor

Several agencies within the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) support youth employment and training efforts. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) administers federal government job training and worker dislocation programs, federal grants to states for public employment service programs, and unemployment insurance benefits. These services are primarily provided through state and local workforce development systems. As part of their overall mission, the Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) supports workforce development strategies for youth with disabilities.
