The term “economically disadvantaged adult” was a category under the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) that no longer applies under WIA. WIA adult and dislocated worker programs do not have a means test for income; only youth programs use income as an eligibility criterion. For more information on WIA eligibility requirements, see the Federal Register for August 11, 2000, Secs. 663.110 – 663.310 (audlts and dislocated workers) and Sec. 664.200 (youth).
