Young Adults, ages 18 to 24, often called “Millenials’ have a unique challenge. They are too old to create a community with the youth and too young to build a community with the adults.

In addition, church ministries and programs are not designed with this age group in mind. Young adults are criticized for wanting community, style, and social venues and opt not to attend church.








![Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem Partners with Carver High School to Launch THE HUB: Harnessing Unlimited Brilliance
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.
Winston-Salem, NC ā The Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Carver High School and Principal Thyais Maxwell in launching THE HUB [Harnessing Unlimited Brilliance], a transformative workforce and career development initiative designed to create intentional pathways for rising and graduating seniors toward sustainable careers and economic mobility.
THE HUB officially launches in July 2026 and will begin enrolling rising seniors and graduating seniors in September 2026. The initiative is already gaining momentum, as 29 graduating seniors from the Class of 2026 at Carver High School have officially signed up to join THE HUB. Tory Ellison, Graduation Coach at Carver High School, invited Bishop John C. Parks to participate in a Career/Job fair on April 24, 2026, at Carver High School, resulting in 29 graduating seniors signing up to participate in The HUB.
Powered by the Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem and its network of more than 31 strategic partners, The HUB was created to bridge the gap between high school graduation for students with no plans for post-secondary education by exposing students to workforce development opportunities, skilled trades, technical certifications, mentorship, leadership development, financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and career readiness training.
āOpportunity changes everything,ā said Bishop John C. Parks, President of the New Hope Resource Center of Winston-Salem and founder of the Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem. The HUB is more than a programāit is a movement designed to help students discover purpose, direction, and opportunity.ā
Principal Thyais Maxwell emphasized the importance of collaboration and exposure for students preparing for life after graduation. Through this partnership, Carver High School students will have direct access to workforce pathways and supportive community partnerships that can help shape their future success.](https://scontent-lga3-3.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.82787-15/700087376_18587418304051834_783181461689610109_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=108&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiRkVFRC5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=R7biNTOaYAYQ7kNvwEbeRT8&_nc_oc=AdqsgKsz-XXIogIMYBzAM3x02P3yD2r-GVicicO-wIhhftlL-07HNfX82u1Zx1oqDzM&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-3.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=p6WXgF4bk9Ns4r9PPsQvwA&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQFHuKifC7tiey_2CPfNNQZebOZLpFwrcqDus7tNPC1ScdN08VNJIUCiBgSq9VxU7kFx4A1eCDP2&oh=00_Af5i08x3mLDkEHMX-n969Lq5y9B2o9hQJPrK1CCbWXxrqw&oe=6A0D72C1)
![New Collaboration between Aspire Youth and Family and Fresh Hope Creates Direct Pipeline from Aspire Youth Programming into The HUB (Harnessing Unlimited Brilliance)
Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem is proud to announce a transformative partnership designed to strengthen the future of youth from Aspire NC Youth and Family [ages 13ā17] and Fresh Hopeās The HUB [Harnessing Unlimited Brilliance] (ages 17-18) through mentorship, personal development, and career pathway opportunities.
This strategic collaboration will connect graduating participants from Aspire Youth & Familyās youth development programming, who graduate in June 2026, directly to Fresh Hopeās newly launched initiative, The HUB, which officially launches in July 2026.
Aspire NC Youth & Family [aspirenc.org] specializes in youth and family development programming for ages 13ā17, with a focus on behavioral support, life skills, mentorship, counseling, and family engagement. Through this new alliance, students completing Aspire NCās programs will now have a direct opportunity to continue their journey through The HUB as rising seniors and graduating seniors. The HUB, powered by the Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem, is designed for rising and graduating seniors who have no plans for secondary education but need personal development and a career pathway toward a successful life.
This collaboration reflects an intentional effort in Winston-Salem/Forsyth County to develop proactive solutions to combat youth disconnection, violence, and crime. Together, Aspire Youth & Family, Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem, and Habitat for Humanityās Youth Empowerment Program are building a future where young people are equipped not only to surviveābut to thrive, and not become prey to youth violence, crime, or the consequences of unemployment.
The partnership unites the leadership and vision of T.J. Johnson and Kendra Brooks of Aspire Youth & Family alongside Mike Presnell, Director of the Youth Empowerment Program at Habitat for Humanity and Fresh Hope Workforce Development Ecosystem, in a collective effort to create long-term opportunities and brighter futures for young people ages 13-](https://scontent-lga3-3.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.82787-15/689212552_18585721585051834_3468772859407819373_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=104&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiRkVFRC5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=OqrD7JBMz-kQ7kNvwEH1mBt&_nc_oc=Adqn3I0lzJmKXryKSHKDi4I1qDlpFr0G7t-nGCo81k2Zg-W7XnCVNTDW0TGBEmin7lI&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-3.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=p6WXgF4bk9Ns4r9PPsQvwA&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQHF4CATvGmSVL2ICoPXP8G4J_LcIhZ93D_NGIXFRl6PXc90x2IPCMheFtW0tPcXq-5Wk-ZYCJ-A&oh=00_Af7HIdi1pcEBFkrNKCw16ZitVgoPB2TToD5dYYpUKrB-nQ&oe=6A0D8225)

![š„ GOD GIVES DIRECTION⦠BUT NOT DETAILS! š„
Ever been in a season where God said āGOāā¦but didnāt say how? š You got the vision⦠but not the instructions. The direction is your assignment. The details are Godās.
Thatās because faith grows in the unknown. If God gave you every detail āyou wouldnāt need to trust Him.[2 Corinthians 5:7].
Abraham had no GPS ā just a word from God. (Genesis 12:1)
Moses had no escape plan ā just a staff and faith. (Exodus 14:21)
Mary had no blueprint ā just āBe it unto me according to Your Word.ā (Luke 1:38)
Sometimes God hides the detailsā¦because He wants you to depend on Him, not the plan.
š Share this to remind someone: the delay isnāt denial ā Godās just working out the details.

![YOU CAN ONLY GATHER WHAT YOU RELATE TO.
Think about it⦠If you keep attracting the same kind of people, the same kind of drama, or the same kind of results ā itās not coincidence. Itās connection.[Proverbs 13:20].
You attract what feels familiar. You gather what you relate to. If you want a new outcome, youāve got to change what you relate to. Because when your relationships shift, your results follow.
