We are now accepting applications for the Young Urban Builders program. The Young Urban Builders program was started in 2018 as a way to address youth unemployment and perform owner-occupied rehabilitation in the West Broad Neighborhood.

The program is designed to provide job training and experience while working on community projects and aiding in neighborhood revitalization. YUB students are involved at all stages in the rehabilitation process to allow for a variety of skills to be developed.

YUB duties and responsibilities include:

• learning and practicing workplace and tool safety
• proper use and maintenance of tools
• developing strong work ethics and basic job skills
• reading blueprints and interpreting written instructions
• using measurement tools and applied mathematics

Requirements:

Students must be between 16 and 24 years of age.
