"YouthBuild Boston" by Chermaine Brissett

I think YouthBuild Boston has many opportunities for young adults like me — people who have dropped out of school, and finally realize that they can't get very far in life until they get their high school degree or GED. YouthBuild Boston also has carpentry training that you can also get a certificate for.

If you want help on a special trade, like plumbing, they will let you focus more on that one skill. After you complete the YouthBuild program, they can send you to more specialized programs to help you further your plumbing or other skills, too. These are just some of the good things YouthBuild Boston has to offer. YouthBuild Boston is the place to be!
