The Job Corps is a program established by the United States Department of Labor. It offers free education and vocational training to young men and women and provides them with specific job opportunities.

The Job Corps were a part of the national war on poverty in the 1960's. The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 was President Johnson's response to increasing unemployment and rising poverty in America.

The Job Corps offer career paths, career technical training, various educational and vocational opportunities.

As a result of introducing this program, crime rate among the poor lowered and many were offered better-paid jobs.
