Youth Immersion is a program dedicated to involving today’s youth in today’s problems. Youth Immersion exists to serve all youth, ages 16 to 25, by providing one-week poverty-education experiences. Participants partner with local affiliates to help build a home while also focusing on civic leadership, diversity, poverty and substandard housing.
Youth Immersion is an opportunity to see firsthand some of the social issues that create situations where families are without safe, decent and affordable housing; while also getting to impact the lives of families by helping to build a home.
The program aims to demonstrate that the youth of today are the change of tomorrow, and that their commitment to social problems will be the sustaining force in the fight against issues like that of poverty housing.
“This experience has been one of the most educational and fun trips I’ve ever been on!” – Katie from Chicago, Ill..
