Our Mission
To give young Kittitians and Nevisians a clear route to training, mentorship, business support and financing pathways that help them work, build and contribute at home.

"YEEB is being built to meet young people where they are and move them toward real opportunity."
The Bureau is taking a results-focused approach from day one. Success will be measured by prepared applicants, stronger youth-led ventures, completed training and trusted mentorship matches.
Young people can explore support across Business Development, Training, Human Resource Development, Mentorship and Psychosocial Support. The Bureau is here to support the person and the plan.
