YouthBuild Bridgeport Graduation

The YouthBuild program is designed to help local youth learn job skills and serve the community by building affordable housing. For unemployed young people who left high school without a diploma, YouthBuild is an opportunity to reclaim their education, gain skills needed for employment, and become leaders in their communities.

YouthBuild Bridgeport includes assistance to pursue a GED, construction skills and industry recognized certifications. Employment and post-secondary placement assistance are also available with follow up supports provided to graduates for one year following program completion. The program offers transportation assistance, a small stipend to earn-as-you-learn, and a fully loaded iPad to use and keep, along with construction tools upon completion.

Graduation is an invitation-only event. For more information, contact Sarah at 203-610-8496.
