ABOUT Youth & Young Adult Services

The ULGA Youth & Young Adult Services Division supports disengaged and disconnected youth, ages 16 to 21, who are out of school, underemployed, and/or not employed. Our goal is to provide them with resources that will help them tap into their talents and achieve their highest potential.

Our programs succeed because we work with each client to develop individual plans based specific skills and goals. League program managers and college and career specialists have outstanding records of achievement in education, workforce development, re-entry, community organizing, housing, financial management, and other relevant fields. They know how to meet young people where they are and collaboratively help them build bright futures.

Our Programs

The At Promise, At Work program offers a structured approach to job readiness and career advancement, through tailored skill-building and support services. Designed for 16 to 24 year oldsthe key features of the program include mentorship, networking opportunities, job placement and college and vocational certifications.

The Reentry Program is unwaveringly committed to extending a lifeline to justice-involved young adults aged 18-24. Programming and support are driven by the belief that everyone deserves an opportunity for redemption and transformation. We are dedicated to equipping these resilient individuals with the essential tools they need to overcome the unique challenges they face, and, most importantly, to empower them to confidently and resolutely secure a brighter and more promising future. The program significantly contributes to preventing youth violence, thereby creating safer communities and civic minded young people seeking to bring positive change to their neighborhoods. 

Classes are held virtually on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6 to 7 p.m., and in person on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Atlanta Technical College.
