“We are the front door the workforce has been missing.”
What is Alive+Well
Some young people have a clear path forward. Most are still searching for one. Alive + Well exists for both.
We're a Rochester, NY nonprofit dedicated to young people ages 13–24 — meeting them where they are, connecting them to people who believe in them, and working alongside them to build a career and life plan rooted in who they actually are and where they genuinely want to go.
