American YouthWorks

American YouthWorks has been providing a second chance to high school drop-outs for 30 years through its Charter School and career development program. Its mission is to bring Green Jobs preparation to youth who have been disengaged from the mainstream economy and mainstream school settings. Each year 400 students are enrolled in its Charter school and 100 students are enrolled in its three green job training programs. The Casa Verde YouthBuild program teaches students how to build green houses using green construction methods. This year American YouthWorks will launch the Green Jobs Training Center for green jobs instruction.
