Change for FiveHundred continues to develop structured youth-development models. The initiatives below are IN DEVELOPMENT and are not represented as fully launched programs.
A youth-support framework centered on mentorship, personal development, education, decision-making, opportunity and positive pathways forward.
Time. Advocacy. Goal Setting. A model designed to help young people build structure around their time, advocate for themselves and establish measurable personal, academic and future goals.
A proposed 12-week youth-development cohort initially designed for approximately 10 participants. Planned areas include mentorship, life skills, leadership, violence prevention and conflict resolution, wellness, technology and AI exposure, financial literacy, entrepreneurship, career exposure and family engagement.
Future participation will depend on implementation, funding, staffing and confirmed program plans.
