New YouthBuild Class Launches with Department of Labor Grant!

Exciting news! This month, Project REBUILD is kicking off a new YouthBuild class, made possible by a new Department of Labor (DOL) grant. YouthBuild Greater Stark County empowers young adults (16-24) with hands-on training, certifications, and opportunities in high-demand careers like construction and customer service.

What Does This Grant Mean?

Thanks to the DOL grant, we can offer even more comprehensive support—helping participants earn industry-recognized certifications, gain real-world experience through projects like home renovations, and work toward their high school diplomas through our education partners like Penn Foster.

What’s New?

This class will learn valuable skills, participate in community service projects, and even train as mentors for younger kids in our community. YouthBuild isn’t just job training—it’s about helping young people see their potential and thrive.

Interested in Joining?

If you or someone you know wants to take the next step toward a brighter future, reach out to us to learn more or apply today!

With this grant, we’re ready to keep building futures—one step at a time.
