Improving the lives of young people living in Inner City Communities!

Designed to increase participants’ employability skills and access to employment opportunities.

YUTE gave me an opportunity to gain a skill or career than can change your life. They are empowering youths and I believe anyone who is enrolled with the right level of determination can achieve their goals

I would recommend that young people looking for opportunity enroll in YUTE, I was just an ordinary garrison youth looking for a chance, now I am employed and everything has changed for the better

YUTE seeks to provide a total solution that works with the YUTE participant from entry through to the final desired outcome. This is a young person who is integrated into the social and economic fabric of the society. This takes into account the challenging realities of unattached youth in the inner city, and addresses both the demand and supply needs for economic empowerment.
