The Youth Initiative Program brings together all facets of
the community by providing a networking forum that allows
agencies and citizens to actively participate in impacting
the problems that affect youth. Enlisting community opinions,
building trust, fostering relationships, participating in
community groups, and developing programs, serve to strengthen
community involvement, reduce duplication, and expand access
to services.
