Mission:
CCEO YouthBuild is a non-profit organization providing comprehensive services to young adults living in the Los Angeles area who are considered to be “at risk”. We are a leadership development program which fosters the belief that: We must develop our youth’s leadership skills so that they may become active agents for social justice in our communities)
YouthBuild provides leadership opportunities and development within each of its three program components. Program members alternate weeks between: 1. Education with our in-house Charter High School classroom and 2. Hands-on construction skills training while building and rehabilitating low-income homes. Members will also benefit from weekly leadership development activities and participate in community service opportunities every Friday and one Saturday of each month.
