Youth UpRising – East Oakland, CA
Youth UpRising — a state-of-the-art youth center in East Oakland — is keeping youth on track through their Evening Reporting Center (ERC). Youth who would otherwise be detained in juvenile hall are allowed to live at home but must report every day after school to Youth UpRising to complete homework, use the computer lab, or to access an array of other services and opportunities, including a health clinic. When the program is over each night, the youth are driven home to ensure compliance with their court-mandated curfews.
