Why it matters
Young people in our community get mentors, tutoring, and job training to help them succeed in school and find good careers. These programs help reduce youth violence and support families who need it most.
If this passes
Five youth workers keep helping young people with school, jobs, and life skills. Programs continue without interruption until federal grant money arrives.
If this does not pass
Youth programs might stop or reduce services while waiting for federal funding. Young people could lose access to mentors and job training support.
