The role of Director, Youth Pathways is to advise and promote effective ways to engage and retain a connection with youth through our existing programs that are tailored for them. 

 

The role of the District Youth Service Chairs Committee is to recommend, coordinate, and support clubs in District 9800 in delivering effective Youth Service programs. These programs are District-Managed, District-Endorsed, or District-Supported. Essentially, the objective is to provide innovative and practical opportunities to assist and motivate children, young people, and associated stakeholders in our communities to acquire learning and life skills. The District Youth Committee is open to recommendations and feedback.
