Yolo County Children's Alliance (YCCA) will launch a comprehensive, equity-centered exploratory pilot to design and test dual-track workforce pathways in community health for BIPOC youth and young mothers ages 17–25 from disinvested communities across Yolo County. This pre-development initiative will evaluate the feasibility and impact of community-rooted, culturally responsive career pathways, including a Community Health Worker (CHW) track for young parents. A control group of 10–15 similarly aged participants will receive limited exposure to career pathways without intensive supports for comparative evaluation.
