Youth become competent community advocates by receiving training in such areas as public speaking, photography, Fashion, media literacy, Arts & Crafts, Catering & Cake Making, community assessment, gathering community support, working with policymakers, and evaluation.

Additionally, RUS-YEP! provides support to adults and organizations by offering training and technical assistance also to their staffs so that they may be better allies to empowered youth and to themselves when starting up their own businesses. We provide networking opportunities, encourage partnerships and assess organizations’ youth empowerment capacity and application of the Youth Empowerment Model.
