Greenbelt CARES Disconnected Youth Program does not mandate youth to participate in the Life Skills Program. According to the Greenbelt CARES, some of these youth already acquire these skills, i.e., Budgeting, Opening Bank Accounts, Savings, Percentage and Interest Rates, and Debit vs Credit Cards. The Life Skills Program is a volunteer program; as a result, recruited youth show low participation level under this program.
