Youth Era (YE) staff consult and provide training and technical assistance for youth-serving groups, organizations, and agencies across the country. Our staff have extensive experience building, improving, and running youth/young adult programs and services, making them invaluable resources for new and evolving youth/young adult service providers.
YE provides technical assistance to state agencies, nonprofits, and communities seeking information about and support in designing programs for young adults who may have experience with mental health, addictions/recovery, foster care, juvenile justice, LGBTQ+, and/or other youth serving systems.
