Dear Mr. Rodgers,

 

Under the Draft State Plan section for Youth Transition Programs I point you to the following:

 

“BSBP’s Business Enterprise Program (BEP) Summer Work Opportunity Program (SWOP) for youth in high school and college opens opportunities for individuals to obtain valuable work experience in the food service industry and further introduces the small business entrepreneur concepts to individuals in transition programs. Each year, staff identifies transition youth who wish to participate in the SWOP.  BEP staff works diligently to place every student interested in this program. “

 

Now I am asking you the following simple questions about this program in FY 2013:

 

1. How many blind youth were involved in this program last year?

2. What was the hourly rate of pay for these “interns”?

 

3. How many if any eventually became involved further with the BEP program?

 

Sincerely,

 

Paul Joseph Harcz, Jr.
