Goodwill operates the YouthBuild program in Roanoke. YouthBuild grants support a pre-apprenticeship model to help these young people learn valuable occupational skills. The grant will help provide academic skills, life skills, and training for in-demand occupations to youth ages 16 – 24 who are lacking a high school diploma. The goal is to help youth achieve a high school diploma or GED and connect them to employment or post-secondary education.
