SayPro partnership with United States Peace Corps Offering Skill Development for Youth at Risk of Exclusion

SayPro, in collaboration with the United States Peace Corps, is offering targeted skill development programs for youth at risk of social, economic, or academic exclusion. SayPro recognizes that marginalized youth often face barriers that hinder their integration into society — including poverty, discrimination, and lack of mentorship. Through customized workshops, mentorship, and practical training, SayPro equips these youth with technical, social, and entrepreneurial skills. Peace Corps volunteers help with coaching, job readiness sessions, and real-world simulations. SayPro creates a lifeline for those who need a second chance at success.

SayPro’s programs address both hard and soft skills — including communication, teamwork, critical thinking, and time management. SayPro integrates life skills training with hands-on learning in fields like construction, agriculture, digital media, and hospitality. Peace Corps facilitates partnerships with training centers and helps design relevant, context-specific curricula. SayPro ensures learning is not just theoretical but practical and actionable. By building both capability and confidence, SayPro prepares youth to compete in modern economies with resilience.

SayPro also provides personal development support, including mental health counseling, peer mentorship, and civic engagement activities. These wraparound services help youth navigate social challenges and build a positive identity. Peace Corps volunteers assist in setting up youth clubs, community action projects, and safe spaces for learning and expression. SayPro believes excluded youth are not problems to be solved — they are potential waiting to be unleashed with the right support and skills.

SayPro tracks outcomes through skills assessments, employment rates, and personal development milestones. Peace Corps supports the design of monitoring tools and connects programs with public employment services. SayPro advocates for inclusive labor policies and expanded funding for youth development. Together, SayPro and the Peace Corps are transforming exclusion into empowerment — providing young people with the tools, networks, and belief in themselves to create a better future.
