At Youth Corporation, Inc. (YCI), we’re dedicated to fostering societal improvement and dismantling the pipeline to incarceration by focusing on critical issues that impact individual and societal well-being. Our latest endeavor, chartering shares of stock to fund workforce development and education, alongside justice system reform, represents a significant stride toward our mission.

A Historic Meeting That Spells Change

In an unprecedented event that can only be described as a divine appointment, YCI found itself at the heart of a historic gathering at the General Assembly. It was a day where politics and purpose aligned, marking a pivotal moment in our journey to reform the criminal justice system.

Central to this momentous day was Mimi, an 8-year-old youth advocate whose presence symbolized the innocence and potential that our efforts aim to protect. Mimi’s interaction with key political figures not only highlighted the urgency of our cause but also the universal appeal it holds.

Champions of Change

Among the distinguished attendees was Speaker of the House, Don Scott, whose own journey from a criminal record to a position of significant political influence embodies the very essence of redemption and transformation we advocate for. His commitment to rehabilitating the criminal justice system resonates deeply with our vision of nurturing safe and healthy communities through avenues like the Construction Trade.

Delegate Michael Jones and Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears, each influential in their respective rights, bring a wealth of experience and dedication to the table. Their involvement signifies a collective movement towards a system that favors rehabilitation over punishment, and education over incarceration.

A Collective Vision for the Future

Our gathering was further enriched by the presence of esteemed leaders such as Eny Osung, Wardell S. Willie Lanier, Jr., and Dr. Chrys-Ann Ambrose, to name a few. Their diverse backgrounds, ranging from academia to the music industry, underscore the multifaceted approach we’re adopting to address the complexities of systemic reform.

Join Us in This Noble Endeavor

We stand at a watershed moment, poised to effect tangible change in the criminal justice system and, by extension, society at large. This is a call to action for all who share our vision of a just, equitable society where every individual has the opportunity to thrive.

As we chart the course forward, we invite you to be part of this transformative journey. Whether through advocacy, investment, or volunteerism, your contribution can make a significant difference in the lives of many.

A Future Rooted in Hope and Action

In closing, we at YCI are buoyed by the promise of what lies ahead. With the support of political allies, community leaders, and compassionate citizens, we are confident in our ability to build better societies, one life at a time.

Stay tuned for updates on our progress and learn how you can contribute to this noble cause. Together, we can turn the tide towards a future where justice and opportunity go hand in hand.

We want to congratulate Liz Charity, founder of YCI, for taking and completing Clark Construction’s Strategic Partnership Program.

The completion of this program marks another step in YCI’s journey toward saving the youth by providing essential training and services to at-risk youths. YCI’s Eric Wickenhouser, a board member, will be leading YCI in all things construction. We have plans to deliver a curriculum to participating correctional facilities in order to train youth in the art of building. Career paths abound and there is a strong need for tradespeople in this current day and age. YCI is here to create jobs and job-ready individuals.

YCI and Clark’s Construction do not have an active partnership. This write-up celebrates our founder’s completion of Clark’s Construction Strategic Partnership Program and should not be misconstrued as an actual partnership between the two parties.

From Clark’s Construction:

Our commitment to small businesses extends beyond any contracting goal. For more than a decade, Clark has invested in the growth and development of small businesses nationwide through our Strategic Partnership Program – an executive education course designed to give small business owners a solid foundation for smart, sustainable growth. Since its inception, nearly 1,200 entrepreneurs and business leaders have completed the program nationwide, opening the doors to greater economic opportunity while strengthening our industry and communities.

Youth Corporation, Inc. is honored to participate in the organization and actuation of the 1 million children March at the Capital on September 17, 2022, from 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm. We are highly concerned about the state of our country with regard to gun violence and child harm. We have acquired the necessary permits and permissions to exercise our right to assemble and speak out on these heartbreaking issues. YCI is officially calling for action from the governor’s office. Each leader of Virginia’s government has taken an oath to protect and to serve the people of Virginia, including children.

Governor Youngkin, will you speak out? Will you raise the flag with us and call for the end of child harm?
