An Important Update: YouthBuild Just A Start Fall Cohort

We are deeply sorry to share that because of a recent change to our federal funding, we won't be able to bring on a new cohort this fall. All information sessions are canceled, and we won't be recruiting students for this fall. 

We know this is disappointing, especially for those who were looking forward to getting started with us. Please know this is a pause, not a stop. We're already working on what comes next, and we hope to welcome many of you then. 

In the meantime, our senior youth advocate and Career & Post-Secondary Education Specialist are available to help prospective students explore alternative resources, opportunities, and next steps. If you are interested in receiving support from our team, please reach out to Jeselyn Hernandez at jeselynhernandez@justastart.org. 

If you or someone you know is still interested in YouthBuild, please complete our inquiry form to stay connected and receive updates about our programming status.

Thank you for your interest in YouthBuild Just A Start and for your patience and understanding during this time.
