Youth World Education Project (YWEP) was established in 2012 as a response to the voices of disconnected youth needing support and preventative measures in the Phoenix metro area. YWEP is a collection of child-focused, evidence-based programs that aims to collectively build and strengthen the family unit by bridging the gap between parental involvement, education, and workforce development. Youth World Education Project is a holistic youth development organization. We are transforming youth through Parent Initiatives and positive Youth Development Programs. We are dedicated to the well-being and development of youth in grades 3-12 from father absent low- income households.
