We go above and beyond to prepare our youth to become responsible, actively engaged global citizens and leaders.

Committed to Making a Difference

In 2014, Gustava Walls Jr., original U-Turn 4 Youth Founder set out to make a difference in the lives of youth all throughout Cuyahoga County by providing them with the tools, resources and support they need in order to stay on the right track and shape them into the leaders of tomorrow. From the time in which Gustava first began U-Turn 4 Youth as a small project, it has now expanded into a summer program designed to offer youth of the community a chance to reach their fullest potential. It runs yearly from June 10- August 10. offering several opportunities for youth throughout the year. Our youth do not have to be at-risk youth. We at G. Walls U-Turn 4 Youth will continue the legacy to contribute in shaping our youth into successful young adults.
