Where We Work: Antigua & Barbuda
In alignment with our global dedication to the economic and social integration of underserved youth, our work in Antigua and Barbuda focused on helping young people, and particularly young men, succeed.
Through our multi-country Caribbean Youth Empowerment Program (CYEP), we connected these youth with technical, vocational, and life skills training. Through this education for employability initiative, we worked to restore these young men’s hope in the future, increase their enrollment and achievement rates to be more comparable to those of young women, and offer a practical path with positive alternatives to the drug trade, gangs, and crime.
