关于我们
With love and respect, YouthBuild partners with opportunity youth to build the skillsets and mindsets that lead to lifelong learning, livelihood, and leadership. Within the opportunity youth population, the YouthBuild movement primarily serves young people who lack a high school diploma and financial resources. These young people are in greatest need of our support, and they are our greatest source of untapped potential. Across hundreds of YouthBuild programs in the United States and around the globe, these young people work together to reclaim their education, gain job skills, and become leaders in their communities. YouthBuild partners with opportunity youth, and stands ready to meet them with knowledge, tools, opportunities, and love.

We are so grateful to Invest in Our Future for partnering with us on preparing young leaders for the modern workforce. Thank you for your commitment to the success of #opportunityyouth!
Solar is booming in America. Industry estimates suggest that by 2033, there could be nearly twice as many solar jobs as there are today. But right now, almost every solar installer in the country is running into hiring issues. They can’t find enough qualified workers, and there aren’t enough training opportunities for folks looking to build up their skillsets. When the folks at YouthBuild Global looked at those numbers, they saw an opportunity. Since the 80s, YouthBuild has helped young people complete high school while training them for high-demand professions. They’ve built a network of 240 programs spread across the U.S. that provide pathways to good-paying jobs to the 4.7 million working-age young people across the country today who aren’t in school or employed. Now, with support from Invest in Our Future, they’re expanding a Solar Jobs Pathway across their network—offering folks they serve the chance to gain the skills needed to enter and excel in the solar industry. Last month, they kicked off a solar panel training and certification pilot program in three YouthBuild program locations. Next year, they’ll expand to 16 more locations, giving them the capacity to train more than 200 young people a year for solar jobs. We were delighted to join YouthBuild a few weeks ago in announcing this expansion at the Classroom to Career Summit hosted at the White House. And we were inspired to be among hundreds of leaders connecting hardworking people to the many, many quality jobs created by the federal government’s investments in clean energy, infrastructure, and manufacturing.

As we wrap up #NationalApprenticeshipWeek, we recognize the transformative hands-on projects happening across the #YouthBuildMovement. ??? Last year GEORGIA BUILDING TRADES ACADEMY INC YouthBuild used the trade skills they gained in their program to work on a community service project for the SCLC Women’s Center. The group of young leaders renovated the center’s sign which was in need of tender loving care. ???? Check out their video to learn more about the project and the incredible pre-apprenticeship work this program is doing! #YouthBuildTheFuture #NAW2024
