Saving the Future - Justice Involved Youth

Avatar: Community Member Community Member

What problem would you like to solve?

I would like to solve the problem that underprivileged and justice involved youth have in finding education services and employment.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

It is important and relevant because there are kids dying because others have given up on them, and they have no support. Having the right people to push you to be the best you is important. The youth are our future.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Developing or expanding programming that helps youth who are "drop outs" or recently incarcerated finish their education and find a job.

Who would that help?

It would help everyone. We are raising and helping young entrepreneurs.
