Youth are part of the solution. That principle is at the root of our youth development work. Youth in our programs grow and distribute food, gain job skills and leadership opportunities, and have the chance to be heard and make a difference.

Many of our programs also pay a stipend to participants. In the process, youth working with Cultivating Community learn lessons in accountability, civic duty, and building a stronger community.
