Book Description HTML

Excerpt - Our government is being strangled by partisan politics, youth employment is at a 60-year low, and student loan debt has surpassed $1 trillion—and yet young people are starting businesses in record numbers. If we want future generations to thrive in the new economy, then we need to funnel this entrepreneurial energy into something positive. The solutions here represent the beginning of an important conversation about how to support and foster the real leaders of tomorrow. From policy ideas and educational programs, to private sector solutions and philanthropic activities, #FixYoungAmerica provides best practices for solving the epidemic of youth unemployment—straight from the leaders who are already in the trenches, working to rebuild an entrepreneurial America right now.
