Teen Advisory Board

 

 

To encourage leadership development and participation Youth Services Programs has created an advisory board of student volunteers. These teens offer feedback to the Program, and act as ambassadors of the message around the state and carry out projects in their local communities that highlight the benefits of postponing sexual involvement.
