YouthBuild Leadership Development & Alumni VISTA- Denver, CO

Mile High Youth Corps’ YouthBuild Program is based on a 43-year national model and serves young adults, ages 18-24, disconnected from school or work. The YouthBuild program provides on-the-job training while meeting increasing demands for a highly-trained workforce in construction and healthcare. Earning a bi-weekly stipend and an AmeriCorps education award, young people from all economic backgrounds can afford to serve their community and invest in their own personal growth. YouthBuild Corpsmembers engage in intensive training divided between the service site building affordable housing or practicing patient care skills, and the classroom earning a GED or High School Equivalency diploma, engaging in leadership development, civic engagement, and college and career readiness activities.
