Personal Transformation

Case Management

YU’s personal transformation work is focused on helping members change their life course. Through our comprehensive services and core programming, we give East Oakland youth the opportunity to build positive relationships, develop new skills, and establish goals and future plans that will put them on a trajectory to success and self-sufficiency in adulthood.

YU’s innovative case management model provides members with a continuum of support across each component of our comprehensive, wrap-around programming. Our team of Case Managers (CMs) works with individual youth to not only engage and retain youth, but to move them forward toward their specified goals and life plan.
