Youth UpRising

Since it’s opening in 2005, Youth UpRising (YU) has grown from a barebones operation to a $6 million organization with a 29-member staff operating in a bustling, 25,000-square-foot, high-tech youth leadership development center including a café, media arts center and health clinic. YU serves Alameda County residents between the ages of 13 and 24 – primarily at-risk youth. Through innovative, culturally relevant programming in the areas of Arts and Expression, Career and Education, Health and Wellness and Social Enterprise, YU attracts an astounding and ever-expanding membership of over 4000 youth.


YU’s mission is rooted in community transformation driven by investments in youth and young adults that result in the personal, social and economic transformation of all residents. YU exists to build healthy, economically robust communities in East Oakland and the surrounding county, creating social change by harnessing the leadership of young people through consciousness raising, personal transformation, hard skill cultivation and leadership development.
