YBLC is a local chapter of YouthBuild USA, a national youth development organization that started in Harlem, New York in 1990. Recently, YouthBuild USA was selected as one of America's 12 best non-profits by more than 2,500 non-profit CEOs.

Our mission is to help low income young adults complete their education, learn the necessary skills to become employed and build a hopeful future for themselves and their families.
