Offers an alternative high school and job training program for young people who are ready to earn a GED or high school diploma and launch a career. Provides education, skills, structure, and GED test instruction. Program includes academic instruction in small classes leading to a GED or diploma; hands-on job training in technology or construction; industry-recognized certifications, preparation for college, apprenticeship, and career-path employment, career coaching, and wrap-around support; free bus passes; opportunities to earn an AmeriCorps education award and small financial bonuses for achievement; and multi-year support and placement assistance after graduation.

Students attend school full-time for roughly 12 months and split their time between the classroom and PYB jobsites. In PYB's Technology track, students learn coding and programming and build and upgrade computers as a community service. PYB's Construction track is a certified pre-apprenticeship program in which students build and renovate homes for low-income families. PYB helps students in both tracks obtain employment and post-secondary education or training.
