In website with the U.S. Census Bureau, written in 2003, youths in the U.S. represent 26 % of the populace and account for 50% of the victims of violent acts. Research demonstrates regular contact with violence is associated with psychological difficulties, language and development skills connected with poor education and juvenile justice problems. In accordance with (The U.S. Department of Education, 1997) and (Dodge, Pettit, Bates, 1997; Kendall-Tackett, Williams & Finkelhor, 1993) "contact with community violence is twice more likely amongst African Americans than any other race." Because of these statistics and known facts, the non-profit seeks funding and several other avenues to be able to train and educate youth.
By providing life skills training before placing youths in jobs that are both contracted and affiliated with the proposed company involved., they are able to provide the tools needed for future success.

One might ask what an apprentice is. In chapter 4 of the summary by T.H. Hawkins, under the caption, What apprentices are not, an apprentice is "a trade or occupation where formal training over a specified period is given and is allied to the provision of facilities for study resulting in a City and Guilds, or qualification."
In accordance with Mr. Hawkins his summary entitled, What is an apprentice? 'The term "apprenticeship" has lost the weight it had when it was originally conceived in the sixteenth century, and has now (...) turn into a blanket term. It covers: temporary and transient -assembly line work (...) and "genuine apprentices" - including craft/trade.'
The business's goal in developing the business in question and its own core-training piece,the non-profit, is to create and develop more of the exact jobs that Hawkins mentions, for at-risk youth that will offer the necessary, blue-collar jobs produced from yesterday's hands-on skill set; these blue -collar jobs have vanished from vocational schools and many other learning environments.
