We believe that the enrichment of youth begins at home! Community and family engagement is one of YEA's priorities. We created Parent University, a program that aims to provide parents with skills, resources, and experiences geared to help them become better parents. As a results, parents become more equipped to aid in the growth and development of their children. When parents participate by attending a certain number of sessions, they can graduate and earn a diploma or certificate of completion along with other perks and rewards for their family!

Our History
Founded on December 19, 2019
The Youth Enrichment Association, Inc. (YEA) was officially founded in December of 2019 by Claude Flowers, Brandon Rodgers, and Ahmad Wesley. However, the three spent over a year developing the ideas and concepts of the organization. Each of them had years of experiences working with youth in other capacities. Through those experiences, they all identified that the needs of youth in the Pittsburgh area still weren't being met. They all then agreed that it was time to do something to address those needs and devoted their time, energy, resources, and efforts into creating YEA.
