For youth, family engagement is central. For adults, participant-navigation support is the equivalent — clear communication, coaching, and follow-up.

When families are connected, youth attendance stabilizes. When adults have navigation support, completion rates rise.
Youth: Family engagement — regular communication, portfolio sharing, and demonstrations.
Adult: Participant navigation — scheduling, career coaching, and proactive follow-up.
Outcome tracking tied directly to family/navigation support activity.
