YouthSource
Children, Youth and Young Adults Division
A "One-Stop" Shop
YouthSource started in 2003 as a “one-stop” service center for young people ages 16-24 who had fallen behind or dropped out of high school.
Our goal is to provide as many services as possible in one location so that young people are able to complete their secondary credential (GED or high school diploma) and move on to college or employment.
