Building Stronger Communities since 2003: The Impact of YouthBuild
YouthBuild Evansville is a youth and community development program that simultaneously addresses core issues facing low-income communities: housing, education, employment, crime prevention, and leadership development. In YouthBuild programs, low-income young people ages 16-24 work towards their high school equivalency, learn job skills and serve their communities by building affordable housing, and transforming their own lives and roles in society.
