Youth Entrepreneurship

The Youth Entrepreneurship Academy™ (YEA) equips high school and college students with the tools and resources to pursue an entrepreneurial alternative. YEA program modules include: entrepreneurial training, financial literacy, technology, economic language, practical experience, and business and life skills.

Five high school and five college students enroll in the seven-month program per year. Youth get a hands-on, dynamic experience of the fundamentals of business ownership and mentorship.

Statistics show that an unacceptable number of U.S. students in underserved communities fail to develop the academic, social and citizenship skills necessary to compete and succeed in today’s economy. YEA is a method to bridge the gap and provide an alternative to the traditional career footprint. Many of our youth have extremely creative, natural entrepreneurial minds prime to soak up knowledge that results in a success path that makes sense for them.

By the end of the program, students will have the theoretical and practical experience for exemplifying leadership, teamwork and citizenship.

The program culminates with graduation ceremony.
