About us

Joshua Hicks

Founder

Joshua Hicks founded the Skill Building Class with one simple mission: to give back to his community. He believes every young person deserves the chance to learn a skilled trade — to discover what they're capable of building with their own hands and find a path forward in life.

For Joshua, this isn't about recognition. It's about making sure the youth of Citrus County have opportunities they wouldn't have otherwise. Every class, every volunteer hour, every student who graduates — that's what drives him to keep building this program for the community he now calls home.
