Catholic Charities of Philadelphia celebrated the graduation of seven young adults from its Youth Skills Building Program (YSBP) on Oct. 3, marking the completion of the ministry’s third cohort. The ceremony was held at the program’s site in the former St. Gabriel Parish Elementary School in Grays Ferry.
Graduates received certificates and personal tool kits recognizing their achievements in trade education. As a final project, the cohort unveiled a Philadelphia Phillies-themed multi-purpose room, created and designed by the students, to serve as a stress-free space for future program participants.
