David became aware that without a strong, spirited community where his Sacramento peers felt engaged, they were falling victim to drugs and gangs. He answered this challenge with VIBE, a sustainable youth-led “urban lounge” providing academic, professional, and social resources such as homework help, resume writing assistance, and community building events to support teens negotiating the developmental challenges all youth face and providing resources to those lacking them in their home and neighborhood environments.
