Youth Success Stories

Meet Lizbeth Gomez

“South Bay Workforce Investment Board’s youth enrichment programs are absolutely amazing in that they prepare young adults with professional preparation, skills development, and training.”

Meet Angelo Mendoza

“YouthBuild is a place where teachers truly understand you, help you, and where you can connect with likeminded students. I would recommend YB for any student that is struggling in school, struggling to get money, and is not interested in attending a traditional high school.”
