Currently, YouthBuild Providence is a participant in a national study to learn how and whether YouthBuild helps the young people it serves. To have an opportunity to enroll in the YouthBuild program, applicants will need to attend an orientation where they will learn more about the program and the study. Not everyone interested in the program will be able to enroll. Enrollment in the program will be based, in part, on agreeing to participate in the study and a lottery (much like drawing names from a hat).
