Youth Corporation, Inc is excited to celebrate the coming end of recidivism. That’s right—we believe that we will not only witness, but take part in the ending of the cycle that promotes divesting disenfranchised communities rather than investing in them. Our mission is to help individuals who are being treated as problems to be treated as people instead. We work tirelessly in an effort to raise awareness about how we can ameliorate the issues of mass incarceration, recidivism, and community devastation. Our goal is simple: end it, all of it, however, a huge mission takes a huge faith and often times requires huge help.

That is why we are following up President Biden’s words with actions of our own. We are doing the heavy lifting: reaching out to local activists, community advocates, “average Joes”, local businesses, educational institutions, and local politicians and we are pushing for change. It is our belief that simply withdrawing contracts from private prisons will not suffice, thought it is a great start. We are working to shed new light on the lenses through which America has looked at correctional facilities and the justice system. In addition, we are laboring to transform the paradigm upon which the current justice system is built upon.

We invite you to join us in these efforts. Showing your support is as easy as tuning into our weekly shows with our Founder & CEO Elizabeth Charity on Saturday afternoons between the hours of 3 PM and 5 PM.  Join us as we educate the public on the importance of these issues and interview various characters who have something important to say. Our relationships with local entities have granted us truly awesome opportunities to make change. Currently we are even working on developing a new relationship with Virginia’s very own new governor, Glenn Youngkin, with the help of individuals like congressman Rob Wittman and the like.

As we gain more and more momentum, we hope to soon meet with delegates, senators, governors, business owners, and leaders in every capacity to share our story. We believe in a healing America and look forward to the changes that we believe are coming very quickly in 2022. In spite of COVID-19 and various challenges, Youth Corporation, Inc still believes in building better societies—we hope to have you join us along the journey.

Youth Corporation, Inc is raising funds. We have charted shares of stock and we invite you to reach out to us directly in order to learn how you can become a shareholder and make a difference with us. Funds will go to the development of 400+ jobs; property hybrid resident-incubators for vocational training, mentorship, and business development as we turn inmates into social entrepreneurs onsite; funding our project that entails streaming classes into local jails; and more.

Today, the Henrico County Police Chief toured Youth Corporation Inc’s headquarters and CHUBBS BUZZ facility in regards to a partnership that would impact inmates in Henrico County jails. The visit was an opportunity for him to show support and gratitude towards those working hard every day on behalf of our community. The tour was kicked off with a presentation by officials from YCI who discussed how this would improve lives for those reentering society after incarceration, reduce recidivism rates among probationers and parolees as well mitigate gang-related violence on released prisoners through job training programs.

At the CHUBBS BUZZ facilities located in Henrico County, many different cultures are coming together to rebuild the country during the Covid-19 epidemic! This past Labor Day, representatives from Life Church in Atlee, Virginia, friends from Africa, and the families in the community came together to laugh, play games, and relax during the final days of summer. We held an event with a diverse group spanning four generations, two continents, and three countries with representatives from the USA, Africa, and Mexico.
