YouthBuild

A person claims to have received an email about a remote work opportunity for high school graduates, followed by a text about a 'YouthBuild part time employment program' offering $25/hour. They suspect it's a scam involving check deposits and cannot locate the original email or Google Form confirmation. Mental health challenges are cited as a factor in their uncertainty about the situation.

A Missouri resident shares how YouthBuild, a federally funded program through Job Point in Columbia, provided education, job training, and support after leaving traditional school. The program helped them earn a high school equivalency, learn carpentry, and access scholarships, but faces potential federal funding cuts that could close such programs.
