How do I offer the YUE program in my community?

The YUE program is offered in “learning communities” called YUE ZONES, which are safe places where disenfranchised youth can share ideas for success, take developmental e-courses via the Internet, and participate in classroom-style workshops that promote business literacy and entrepreneurial enrichment. YUE ZONES consist of a network, genuinely linked and functioning, of community partners such as youth-oriented organizations, schools, faith-based institutions, libraries and recreation centers. There is no cost for community partners to join this collaborative youth development effort.  Click here for additional information.
