Abstract: This paper presents a framework for examining the entrepreneurial characteristics, and traits among slum youth in Chennai. The slums of Chennai are divided into three sub divisions based on the ecological and occupational aspects. In general, slums are considered as the environment of contrast. Youth residing in slum are viewed as the deviants, criminals and antisocials, rather than resources. Slums are characterized by researchers as 'culture of poverty' and sub culture of the poor. We focus on the slum youth as resource and it can be utilized. The youth's entrepreneurial traits or characteristics are identified and developed towards uplifting their economic standards social work intervention methods for sustainable in the entrepreneurial activity.
