About YouthBuild Rockford:
YouthBuild Rockford is a highly regarded program of Comprehensive Community Solutions, Inc. (CCS) that provides low-income young people who have dropped out of high school in the Rockford area with vital opportunities to become productive, self-supporting adults. YouthBuild serves out of school youth with academic education, vocational skills training, personal counseling, positive peer support, leadership development, job placement and follow-up support. In addition, participants build or rehabilitate housing for low-income families, and have produced 35 units of housing in Rockford since the program began.
About YouthBuild:
YouthBuild is a youth and community development program that simultaneously addresses core issues facing low-income communities: education, employment, housing, crime prevention, and leadership development. In YouthBuild programs, low-income young people ages 16-24 work full-time for 6 to 24 months toward their GEDs or high school diplomas while learning job skills by building affordable housing for homeless and low-income people and participating in leadership development activities in their communities. There are 226 local, autonomous YouthBuild programs in 42 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, engaging approximately 8,000 young adults each year.
