USAID Youth-Powered Ecosystem to Advance Urban Adolescent Health (YPE4AH) is a five-year award (May 2020–May 2025) financed by USAID. DAI, the Nigerian government, YEDI, WFI, YBR, and GRS are implementing it in Lagos and Kano. Out-of-school adolescents in Lagos and Kano slums will benefit from the scheme. Youth Hubs will create a safe environment for sexual and reproductive health and rights information and referrals. The program will also help young Nigerians rethink their futures and get the skills, social capital, and resources they need to succeed.
