YEP prepares youth with critical skills needed for life beyond high school. Youth ages 14-21 are hired for the summer and fall to clean our city's streets. The program teaches hard work while helping youth develop a sense of pride for their community.
The 2021 YEP Application can be completed and submitted online. Additional documents may be requested during orientation.
