Youth Needs More Organizations For Our Youth

One of most important thing that the agency provides for young people in the community is to provide access to resources by offering eight drop-in centers throughout the suburbs of Chicago. Access to resources is critical to our youth. “All human beings deserve access to the resources they need to deal with life’s problems and to develop to their fullest potential”( Hepworth, D. H., Rooney, R. H., Rooney, G. D., & Strom-Gottfried, K. 2017). By implementing this value into the agency, young people are provided safe places to meet every week.In doing so, it provides an opportunity for staff and the young people to meet so they can discuss the many issues that affect

As an aspiring 16-year-old living in the 21st century, it is important to expose young minds to the real-world and edify the importance of involvement in the community. There are numerous reasons why it is important for youth to be involved in the City Government and our community. Furthermore, it is important for young people to become more involved in our community so we will be able to sustain a perfect society for the city.

The mission for the YMCA for youth is “Nurturing the potential of every child and teen”. Staff are taught that we must follow the mission statement to the fullest to insure that children will be able to fulfill their potentials. Also was said that many children, and teens do not have the resources to reach their potential so that is where the YMCA, and staff comes in. The YMCA tries to keep their mission alive by providing different classes, resources, and values to help youth. The are various programs, and services we provide for children and youth. Starting with childcare, camp, healthy food, education, sports, homework club, after school programs, classes, and many more. The YMCA is a non profit meaning it is goal is not making money, and makes most of their funds by fundraising, and membership cost. Although, the YMCA does not turn away anyone just because they do not have the funds to buy a membership. The YMCA provides aid for anyone that needs it, and welcomes them with open arms. Other ways the YMCA obtains money to keep their gym running is special events, and some programs that may have a fee.The YMCA main goal starting out was keeping young men out of trouble, and getting them the resources to find a job. That still lives on today, along with promoting healthy living. The YMCA hires people that fit under the safety guidelines for youth, and the same for volunteers. Every worker and volunteer must be able to pass a national finger print, and go through trainings

From the early stages of the project there was a commitment to ensure that young people were provided with an opportunity to have their voices heard. Several approaches were implemented in ensuring that this was made possible. These approaches included a campaign promoting the development of the youth plan, partaking in the results of the youth plan consultations, and promoting the development of the youth plan and the range of ways young people could participate.

Best Youth Services is an organization with values based on enhancing the quality of life of the youth in the community. The severity of the allegations of soliciting sex from a student of Bill Barnes cannot be taken lightly.

When I started my freshman year of high school, I did not understand the importance of a strong community. A good community allows people to have a sense of belonging, safety, and friendship. To build this community you need a group of caring people who are willing to be involved, a purpose or cause, and good leadership. I had the opportunity through an organization called the Leadership Scholars Program to mentor 7th graders on high school and college readiness, as well as improving their mindfulness. I worked a full year with 3 boys who taught me a lot of patience and how to have fun when learning new things. I’m truly grateful for each boy and I hope that each of them will go on to be successful young men. At the Over the Rhine Soup Kitchen

As I have spent my last four years of high school at North Gwinnett High School, I have been immersed with many opportunities to involve myself in community involvement to better the community in a place where I call home and into different corners of the world. Through boughts of community service and volunteer work within my community, I have not only gained a new, fresh image of what a community really is, but a new hope for a bigger and brighter future. Because of my experiences with volunteer work with Happy Feat, North Gwinnett High School Girls’ Lacrosse Camp, and food packs, I have learned new routes of leadership and gained new perspectives from those experiences.

After researching the best practices for services delivery to the at-risk youth in Chicago, I discovered multiple resources. There were so many centers that provided information to the youth to help better them. However, only one of those resource centers was known for their best practices. That center is the Youth Outreach Services (YOS). This center offers the best practices in counseling, prevention, child welfare, and juvenile justice. The mission of YOS is that they believe every individual has the potential to find a positive way through life and have positivity in adulthood. YOS works in partnerships with their clients in order to develop the skills they will use for a lifetime. Their primary goal is to make sure local teenagers have the resources they need to deal with the current issues in Chicago, as well as, preventing them. YOS always provide positivity to the youth and wants to make sure they are proactive. They promote social engagement, help build self-confidence and help individuals manage their negative behaviors.

After school programs for youth. Cultural programs such as art, music, culinary classes, dance, and book clubs, for youths and adults. Other activities could be live bands, art shows, book and poetry readings featuring local musician, artists, and writers. Community involvement is essential to what we are trying to accomplish. When communities come together, it is easier to identify with each other, breaking down divides that come from isolation. Here too we can use our Year of Service youths to help create and serve in these community

The first worship service of New Life Reformed church was held in a Dordt College classroom in July of 1990. A month later, services were held regularly at the Te Paske Threatre in Sioux Center. It wasn’t until January of 1991 that an official pastor was installed. A ground-breaking ceremony for the new building site took place in July of 1994, and by June of 1996, the building that is used today was dedicated into operation. According to Ryan, a youth ministry leader did not step into the scene until a couple of years later.

Courtney Wilson from Youth Villages presented on numerous employment opportunities within the organization and gave a general overview about how they help children and families. She described that Youth Villages is a last resort for children and families because the children that they interact with have typically been in the system, whether it be with DPS or troubles with the law. She explained how the organization’s first priority is the children they serve because they have experienced such trauma and many people in and out of their. I enjoyed Ms. Wilson’s positive energy and informative presentation, however, I wish she knew more about the research or clinical practices, rather than trying to recruit for her organization. Her discussion

I’m eager to bring my perspective to the explemary University of Oklahoma, championing the idea of “thriving community”. This means stepping away from the laptop and meeting people where they are at. I have found a passion for serving youth, as I can relate to the unique challenges that come with adolescence. It is crucial for every individual to know that their story can be used to help others, and to put in the mental, physical, and emotional work to serve is a worthy

A positive youth development program is designed to help young adults overcome their challenges and live up to their full potential. Youth development is emphasized through different activities which helps the youth emotionally, physically, and socially. Youth development programs are basically used to help them regain confidence, and how to bounce back to a normal life. My program name is Helping Hands, which will be based on abused youth in African American public schools. The motto for my program is “Not all hands are helpful, but our hands are guaranteed life changers.” When organizing a program knowing the population, how it works, and its essentials are mandatory for a successful youth development program.

Members of the public can volunteer their time and services to help organise activities or the beneficiaries from TOUCH Community Service, Lions Befrienders and Children-At-Risk Empowerment Association (CARE Singapore). Youths can impact the lives of the elderly and more by simply setting aside time to volunteer at such organisations instead of being cooped up at home. Even though teenagers often complain that they do not have the time to participate in such activities as they are tied down by school and are often struggling to cope with their homework, school activities, tuition etc. They can still make an impact by donating to these
