Holding a specific thing
is a very nice thing to do.
You are standing there
and you hold
an enormous cabbage.
Or a violin.
Or a bright balloon.
That is a job in and of itself.
The simple act of doing one thing.
—Maira Kalman, Women Holding Things

Youth Inc. is a new learning alternative designed for young people aged 17-24 who are looking for something different.
Our School is specifically designed for young people who want to change their world, to dare to dream and discover who they are; their unique gifts, talents and strengths. To figure out what a meaningful, fulfilling and joyful life is to them.
Youth Inc. is a vibrant, inclusive and affirming learning community that welcomes young people of all identities and lived experiences. We work hard to co-create a space where everyone belongs, where everyone in our community feels seen, heard and valued for who they are and how they identify.
Exploring and expressing who you are and/or who you want to be is our "pounding heart". We make space for you to explore your values, strengths, passions, experiences, so you can be your true and full self.
